Malignant acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is characterized by acute neurological deterioration caused by progressive space-occupying brain edema, often occurring in the first hours to days after symptom onset. Without any treatment, the result is often f... Read More about Surgery for Malignant Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Narrative Review of the Knowns and Unknowns.
