We report a case of hemorrhagic complication after mechanical thrombectomy (MT) for internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion with twig-like middle cerebral artery (MCA).
A 75-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with ICA occlusion. Recanalization was achieved by a direct aspiration first pass technique (ADAPT). The peripheral MCA was twig-like, but operators thought that a thrombus remained in the MCA first segment. The procedure was continued and suspended with perforation of the microguidewire.
When performing MT for large vessel occlusion (LVO) with twig-like MCA, it is difficult to proceed a device to the periphery and there is a risk of hemorrhage.
我们报告一例因大脑中动脉(MCA)呈细枝状的颈内动脉(ICA)闭塞行机械取栓术(MT)后出现出血并发症的病例。
一名75岁男性因ICA闭塞入院。通过直接抽吸首次通过技术(ADAPT)实现了再通。外周MCA呈细枝状,但术者认为血栓仍留在MCA第一段。手术继续进行,因微导丝穿孔而暂停。
当对呈细枝状MCA的大血管闭塞(LVO)进行MT时,将器械推进到外周很困难,且有出血风险。
