- Fig 1.
A 36-year-old woman with an acute left hemiparesis and an admission mRS of 5. A and B, Noncontrast CT scan shows subtle low attenuation in the right putamen and head of the caudate nucleus; CT perfusion shows a significant reduction of cerebral blood flow in the right MCA territory. C, After initiation of IV-rtPA, the patient was transferred to the angiography suite and a persistent occlusion (TICI 0) of the M1 segment of the right MCA is shown on the posteroanterior angiogram. D, Successful recanalization (TICI 3) was achieved after thrombus aspiration with the PS. Total time from symptom onset to successful recanalization was 205 minutes. The patient was discharged to the rehabilitation unit with an mRS score of 4 after 11 days, and a favorable outcome with an mRS score of 2 was diagnosed at follow-up.
