Aggressive mechanical clot disruption: a safe adjunct to thrombolytic therapy in acute stroke?
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE This study evaluated the safety and efficacy of aggressive mechanical clot disruption (AMCD) in acute stroke patients with persisting middle cerebral artery (MCA) or internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion after thrombolytic therapy. METHODS Retrospective case series were used from a prospectively collected stroke database on consecutive acute ischemic stroke patients t...
متن کاملLow-dose intra-arterial urokinase and aggressive mechanical clot disruption for acute ischemic stroke after failure of intravenous thrombolysis.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Intravenous (IV) thrombolysis often fails to achieve recanalization of occluded cerebral arteries, especially in patients with proximal large arterial occlusions. The goal of this study was to assess the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of low-dose intra-arterial (IA) urokinase and aggressive mechanical clot disruption (AMCD) after failure of IV thrombolysis for acute is...
متن کاملSafety and efficacy of delayed intraarterial urokinase therapy with mechanical clot disruption for thromboembolic stroke.
PURPOSE To evaluate safety and efficacy of delayed intraarterial urokinase therapy with mechanical disruption of clot to treat thromboembolic stroke. METHODS Thirteen patients with cerebral thrombolic disease (10 carotid territory, 3 basilar territory) were treated with catheter-directed intraarterial urokinase therapy with mechanical disruption of the clots. All patients were excluded from a...
متن کاملIs mechanical clot removal or disruption a cost-effective treatment for acute stroke?
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE It is unclear whether the costs and risks of mechanical therapies make them cost-effective. We examined whether interventions such as mechanical clot removal or disruption with angioplasty are cost-effective for acute ischemic stroke compared with best medical therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a cost-utility analysis of patients with acute stroke due to large ...
متن کاملEndovascular mechanical clot retrieval in a broad ischemic stroke cohort.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Our aim was to describe an expanded experience with endovascular mechanical embolectomy in a broad group of patients, including those not meeting entry criteria for the MERCI multicenter trials. METHODS We performed an analysis of all patients with ischemic stroke treated with the Merci Clot Retrieval Device at a single academic center outside of the Mechanical Embolus ...
