In stroke patients achieving successful recanalization after mechanical thrombectomy, the time interval from stroke onset to computed tomography perfusion (CTP) scan and the ischemic core volume are associated with the occurrence of ghost infarct core (GIC). Patients cannot be excluded from mechanical thrombectomy solely based on baseline CTP-derived ischemic core volume, especially for patients with a shorter onset time.
Objectives To assess the predictors of ghost infarct core (GIC) in stroke patients achieving successful recanalization after mechanical thrombectomy (MT), based on final infarct volume (FIV) calculated from follow-up diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). Methods A total of 115 consecutive stroke patients who had undergone baseline computed tomography perfusion (CTP) scan, achieved successful recanalization after MT, and finished follow-up DWI evaluation were retrospectively enrolled. Ischemic core volume was automatically generated from baseline CTP, and FIV was determined manually based on follow-up DWI. Stroke-related risk factors and demographic, clinical, imaging, and procedural data were collected and assessed. Univariate and multivariate analyses were applied to identify the predictors of GIC. Results Of the 115 included patients (31 women and 84 men; median age, 66 years), 18 patients (15.7%) showed a GIC. The GIC group showed significantly shorter time interval from stroke onset to CTP scan and that from stroke onset to recanalization (both p < 0.001), but higher ischemic core volume (p < 0.001), hypoperfused area volume (p < 0.001), mismatch area volume (p = 0.006), and hypoperfusion ratio (p = 0.001) than the no-GIC group. In multivariate analysis, time interval from stroke onset to CTP scan (odds ratio [OR], 0.983; p = 0.005) and ischemic core volume (OR, 1.073; p < 0.001) were independently associated with the occurrence of GIC. Conclusions In stroke patients achieving successful recanalization after MT, time interval from stroke onset to CTP and ischemic core volume are associated with the occurrence of GIC. Patients cannot be excluded from MT solely based on baseline CTP-derived ischemic core volume, especially for patients with a shorter onset time.
