Mechanical thrombectomy following intravenous thrombolysis in the treatment of acute stroke.
Arch Neurol. 2005; (11): 1763-5
The efficacy of intravenous thrombolytics in acute stroke is limited by low rates of recanalization of occluded arteries. Treatment with intravenous thrombolytics followed by mechanical thrombectomy is a novel approach that may increase recanalization rates without compromising time to initiation of treatment.
