Abstract Background and Objective: Malignant cerebral edema (MCE) is a well-known complication in patients with acute ischemic stroke with core infarcts ≥ 80 mL caused by large-vessel occlusions. MCE can also develop in patients with smaller infarcts with moderate -to-large volume of tissue at risk who do not achieve successful revascularization with endovascular thrombectomy (ET). Features that predict the development of MCE in this population are not welldescribed. We aim to identify predictors of MCE and 90-day functional outcome in stroke patients with an anterior circulation large vessel occlusion (LVO) and a
