Angioplasty after intra-arterial thrombolysis for acute occlusion of intracranial arteries.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to report our experience with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) of intracranial arteries in acute stroke patients who were resistant to intra-arterial thrombolysis alone. METHODS PTA was performed within 6 hours from symptom onset in 13 acute stroke patients in whom no hypodensity areas were observed on initial CT. PTA was classif...
متن کاملIntra-arterial thrombolysis of acute iatrogenic intracranial arterial occlusion attributable to neuroendovascular procedures or coronary angiography.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE For selected stroke patients, intra-arterial thrombolysis (IAT) has been shown to be an effective treatment option. However, knowledge of safety and efficacy of IAT in patients with acute stroke as a complication of arterial catheter interventions is limited. METHODS We analyzed clinical radiological findings and functional outcomes in consecutive patients 3 months afte...
متن کاملPrior statin use, intracranial hemorrhage, and outcome after intra-arterial thrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE There are only limited data on whether prior statin use and/or cholesterol levels are associated with intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) and outcome after intra-arterial thrombolysis. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association of statin pretreatment and cholesterol levels with the overall frequency of ICH, the frequency of symptomatic ICH, and clinical outcome a...
متن کاملDirect percutaneous transluminal angioplasty for acute middle cerebral artery trunk occlusion: an alternative option to intra-arterial thrombolysis.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of direct percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) for patients with acute middle cerebral artery (MCA) trunk occlusion. METHODS Over the past 9 years, a total of 70 patients with acute MCA trunk occlusion were treated with intra-arterial reperfusion therapy. In the last 5 years, 34 patients were treat...
متن کاملReocclusion of recanalized arteries during intra-arterial thrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Early reocclusion of recanalized arteries has been observed after thrombolysis for acute coronary occlusion and has been attributed to platelet activation after exposure to thrombolytic agents. We conducted a retrospective study to determine the rate of reocclusion during intra-arterial thrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke and the effect of reocclusion on functional out...
