Outcome in patients with basilar artery occlusion treated conventionally.
BACKGROUND Most data on the outcome of basilar artery occlusion are from recent case series of patients treated with intra-arterial thrombolysis. The limited knowledge on the outcome after a conventional treatment approach comes from a few small case series of highly selected patients. OBJECTIVE To provide more data on the outcome of conventional treatment. METHODS Data were analysed on pat...
متن کاملTreatment and clinical outcome in patients with basilar artery occlusion.
Treatment and Clinical Outcome in Patients With Basilar Artery Occlusion To the Editor: We read with great interest the recent article by Lindsberg and Mattle1 in which they found, in a review of published case series, that patients with basilar artery occlusion treated with intra-arterial and intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) have similar outcomes. We wonder whether they also compared their 2 gro...
متن کاملOutcome predictors in acute basilar artery occlusion.
OBJECTIVE to identify predictors of good outcome in acute basilar artery occlusion (Bao). Background: acute ischemic stroke (aiS) caused by Bao is often associated with a severe and persistent neurological deficit and a high mortality rate. METHODS the set consisted of 70 consecutive aiS patients (51 males; mean age 64.5 ± 14.5 years) with Bao. the role of the following factors was assessed: ...
متن کاملAdmission facility is associated with outcome of basilar artery occlusion.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Basilar artery occlusion (BAO) is a stroke subtype with poor prognosis, but recanalizing therapies have been reported to be effective. We investigated whether initial admission to telemedically linked general hospitals with subsequent stroke-center transfer is related to poorer outcome than direct admission to stroke centers. METHODS All BAO cases of 3 stroke centers in...
متن کاملNeuroimaging Predictors of Clinical Outcome in Acute Basilar Artery Occlusion
Certain early neuroimaging findings are independent predictors of clinical outcome in acute basilar artery occlusion. These imaging findings may serve as important baseline imaging characteristics as well as subgroups in future randomized controlled trials. The purpose of this review is to review and compare early neuroimaging findings seen on non-invasive cranial imaging that predict clinical ...
