Core Tip	This review discusses the critical advancements in endovascular device technology for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke. Endovascular mechanical thrombectomy is becoming an increasingly utilized treatment approach for patients in whom intravenous thrombolysis with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator is ineffective or contraindicated. While three recent randomized controlled trials found no benefit of endovascular thrombectomy over intravenous therapy, it is important for clinicians to understand the limitations of these trials and recognize the expected key role of endovascular therapy in the future management of stroke patients.
