Intra-arterial thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke patients with active cancer
J Neurol 266:2286-2293, Lee, D.,et al, 2019
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Although baseline characteristics and recanalisation rate after IAT up to 24 h after stroke onset were similar between acute ischaemic stroke patients with active cancer and without any cancer, stroke-related death and short-term outcome were significantly poorer in patients with active cancer than the controls. Post-procedural haemorrhage and active cancer itself were independent predictors of a decrease in functional independence at 3 months.
