Prognosis in middle cerebral artery occlusion.
The natural history of MCA occlusion has become increasingly important since the surgical option of EC/IC bypass surgery has been available. The clinical course of 24 patients with angiographically-demonstrated occlusion of the MCA artery was reviewed. Eight patients presented with a major disabling stroke and five of these died during the acute phase of this ischemic event. The remaining 19 pa...
متن کاملMultiple intracranial arterial stenosis influences the long-term prognosis of symptomatic middle cerebral artery occlusion
BACKGROUND Large intracranial occlusive vascular disease is a major contributor to the incidence of stroke worldwide, especially when it involves the middle cerebral artery (MCA). The data on the prognosis of symptomatic atherosclerotic MCA occlusions (MCAO) with concomitant intracranial arterial disease (MCAO-AIS) are limited. MCAO-AIS may reflect the extent of the atherosclerotic intracranial...
متن کاملA comparison of long-term functional outcome after 2 middle cerebral artery occlusion models in rats.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Proven behavioral assessment strategies for testing potential therapeutic agents in rat stroke models are needed. Few studies include tasks that demand higher levels of sensorimotor and cognitive function. Because behavioral outcome and rate of recovery vary among ischemia models, there is a need to characterize and compare performance on specific tasks across models. M...
متن کاملPrognosis of patients with middle cerebral artery occlusion.
The long-term prognosis of 78 stroke patients with occlusion of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) or its branches is described. The mean age of the patients was 44 years. The mortality rate in the acute phase was 5%. The acute and total mortality rates of men were higher than those of women (p less than 0.05). Life-table analysis gave 94% probability for one year's survival, 84% for three years'...
متن کاملResearch Paper: Optimization of Transient Focal Cerebral Ischemia Model by Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion
Introduction: Cerebral ischemia is one of the most common causes of death in human populations in the industrial communities. The need for animal models is inevitable to study the pathophysiology and treatment of cerebral ischemia in human. The current study aimed at evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of different techniques used to create ischemia in previous studies and optimizing the tr...
