It is important to understand the microbial features of the cerebral thrombus and its clinical relevance in stroke patients, of which data were scarce. We aimed to investigate the microbial features of cerebral thrombi retrieved via thrombectomy in stroke patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO) and their correlations with 3-month mortality. In a prospective cohort study, thrombus samples were collected during mechanical thrombectomy in LVO stroke patients with successful revascularization at a tertiary hospital. Oral, fecal, and isolated plasma samples were collected within 12 h of admission. The microbial compositions of all samples were compared using 16S rRNA gene amplicon next-generation sequencing. Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) was used to detect bacteria in thrombus samples. The primary outcome was 3-month mortality. Perioperative adverse events (AEs) within 48 h were also recorded. Bacterial DNA was detected in 96.2% of thrombus samples from 104 patients, and clusters of bacterial signals were seen in the thrombi with FISH. Compared with fecal and oral samples, the thrombus microbiota was mainly characterized by excessive enrichment of Proteobacteria, mainly originating from plasma. The bacterial concentrations, dominant bacteria, and distribution patterns differed in thrombi obtained from cardioembolic and large-artery atherosclerotic strokes. Higher abundances of Acinetobacter and Enterobacteriaceae were associated with a higher risk of perioperative AEs, and a higher abundance of Acinetobacter was independently associated with a higher risk of 90-day mortality. This study demonstrated the presence of bacteria in cerebral thrombi retrieved with thrombectomy in LVO strokes, with some bacteria associated with patients’ prognoses.
