Abstract
Post-stroke dysphagia (PSD) is a common sequela of stroke. Given the association between dysphagia and sarcopenia, we aimed to investigate the association between PSD and temporal muscle thickness (TMT) and masseter muscle thickness (MMT) following endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in patients with large-vessel occlusion (LVO).
