A recanalized AIS patient who had unfavorable outcome. A-51-year-old woman presented with a weakness in her left limb for 6.7 h after last known to be well. The admission NIHSS (National Institutes of Health Stroke scale) was 10 and the hypoperfusion intensity ratio (HIR) was 0.5. (Top left) The admission CT perfusion (CTP) scan showed the volume of ischemic core (rCBF < 30%) was 23.16mL; (Bottom left) and the volume of critically hypoperfused region (Tmax > 12s) was 49.85mL. (Right) A hemorrhagic transformation in the right frontotemporal insula (white arrow) was seen on the brain NCCT at day 3 after endovascular thrombectomy, and the follow-up NIHSS was 13. Clinical outcome revealed a mRS of 3 at day 90
