Outcome and risk of hemorrhage in patients with tandem lesions after endovascular treatment: A propensity score-matched case-control study.

Clinical outcome and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhages did not differ significantly between endovascular treated patients with tandem lesions and matched patients with solitary intracranial occlusions, regardless of the antiplatelet regimen. Therefore, the complex technical requirements for recanalization of a tandem lesion and the putative higher risk should not result in reluctant treatment that would decrease the chance of a good clinical outcome.
