Read our Stroke research guide →This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing a combined surgical approach for patients who have had a stroke caused by a blocked blood vessel in the brain, but the standard catheter-based treatment (called thrombectomy) didn't work. Doctors will try emergency surgery—which may include opening the artery directly and removing the clot, or creating a new blood vessel pathway around the blockage—to restore blood flow to the brain. The goal is to see if this surgical approach can improve patient recovery and reduce long-term disability.
When a major blood vessel in the brain becomes blocked during a stroke, doctors typically try a catheter-based procedure to remove the clot. However, this procedure doesn't work for everyone. This trial exists because doctors need better treatment options for these patients, and they want to know whether emergency surgery can help restore blood flow and improve outcomes when standard treatments fail.

If you qualify and agree to join, you will receive emergency surgery to try to restore blood flow to your brain. This may include an open arterial procedure to remove the clot or a bypass surgery to create new blood vessel pathways. After the surgery, you will be monitored closely in the hospital, and doctors will assess your recovery at follow-up visits, particularly checking your functional ability at 90 days after the procedure. The specific visits and tests will depend on your hospital's protocols and your recovery progress.
