  1. Main results: postoperative weight loss, volumes of oedema and infarction. Median values and values in brackets are 25 and 75 percentiles. The 5 animals with an extracranial ICAO significantly differed from all the other 30 animals with an intracranial site of occlusion. * = p < 0.05, ** = p < 0.01, *** = p < 0.001.
