Objective: We retrospectively analyzed the current status of treatment for anterior circulation large vessel occlusion (LVO) in island areas with a high population aging rate.

Methods: We investigated 62 consecutive patients with ischemic stroke due to acute anterior circulation LVO between October 1, 2017 and June 30, 2019.

Results: In all, 26 (41.1%) patients underwent endovascular treatment (EVT). The successful recanalization rate of EVT was 88.5% (23/26). There was a significant difference in the age (median, 75.5 years vs. 81 years, respectively, P = 0.0411) and the rate of intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) therapy (53.5% vs. 11.1%, respectively, P <0.001) between the EVT group and the non-EVT group. Patients in the EVT group achieved a favorable outcome more frequently than those in the non-EVT group (50% vs. 11.1%, respectively, P = 0.0012). In the analysis based on the place of onset among the three cities comprising Awaji Island and the four groups with in-hospital onset, there was no significant difference in the rate of EVT, and the outcome of the in-hospital onset group was poor. Among the EVT group, there was a significant difference in the pre-treatment National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score (median, 15 vs. 19, respectively, P = 0.0237) and time from onset to recanalization (O2R; median, 240 min vs. 323 min, respectively, P = 0.0128) between the favorable outcome group and the unfavorable outcome group.

Conclusion: Even in an island area, it is possible to complete the treatment of ischemic stroke due to LVO within the regional medical area.
