    AbstractVasospasm related to mechanical thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke sometimes occurs as a periprocedural complication, although it is usually a transient and asymptomatic event. Herein we describe the second case of symptomatic delayed vasospasm associated with mechanical thrombectomy, highlighting its unique device-related adverse event. When intraoperative vasospasm occurs, we should pay attention to this phenomenon, and close follow-up is necessary.Copyright © 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
