Background: Previous studies reported that red cell
distribution width (RDW) was related to acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Endovascular
treatment (EVT) still faces a huge challenge: futile recanalization. The goal of
our study was to investigate the relationship between futile recanalization and
RDW in AIS patients receiving EVT. Methods: We retrospectively
identified 188 AIS individuals with anterior circulation occlusion throughout EVT
and obtained complete or near-total recanalization. The subjects were classified
into futile recanalization group by their 3-month modified Rankin scale (mRS)
score
