Brief Summary: A mono-centre observational study with the aim of compare clinical outcome at 3 month on patients admitted with recent cerebral infarct and intracranial large vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation who are eligible for mechanical thrombectomy in three different position : Patients admitted first in the Comprehensive Stroke Center of Montpellier, those transferred after Proximity Stroke Unit or prehospital bypass for patients with high suspicion of large vessel occlusion.to the Comprehensive Stroke Center of Montpellier
Detailed Description: Multiple RCT has recently proved the superiority of mechanical thrombectomy compared to the best medical therapy (BMT) on patients with recent cerebral infarct and anterior circulation intracranial large vessel occlusion. In the Occitanie-Est region (ex Languedoc Roussillon), comprising 6 Stroke Unit, only the Comprehensive Stroke Unit of the CHU de Montpellier has a centre of interventional neuroradiology (NRI) that can perform mechanical thrombectomy. Patients suspected of stroke are referred to the nearest SU, then the candidates for thrombectomy, are transferred secondarily to the Stroke Center in Montpellier. Currently, there is no evidence that an initial management in a proximity stroke unit and a secondary transfer for a mechanical thrombectomy is associated with a loss of chance for patients, compared to patients initially treated at the Stroke Center regional reference. The objective of the study is to compare clinical outcome on patients admitted first in the Comprehensive Stroke Center of Montpellier those transferred after Proximity Stroke Unit or directly admitted when high suspicion of large vessel occlusion.
