Summary

This study tests whether placing a small tube (stent) in a hardened brain artery during a stroke helps patients recover better than the usual clot-removal methods. About 500 adults with severe stroke who did not improve after initial treatment will be randomly assigned to one of the two approaches. The goal is to see if stenting leads to less disability and better daily functioning.
