Excerpt

The Solitaire stent (Solitaire AB, ev3 Inc, Plymouth, MN) is a newly designed self-expanding stent that can be used for flow restoration and thrombectomy in acute cerebral vessel occlusion. Due to its closed cell design it can be retrieved even after full deployment. Castaño et al. evaluated in a pilot study if the Solitaire stent is an effective and safe recanalization device. …
