ABSTRACT
We report a 78-year-old man with a basal Rankin score of 2 points, last seen 10 hours before in good conditions, who arrived at the emergency department with left hemiparesis, hypoesthesia, and spacial neglect. Neuroimaging was compatible with stroke in the territory of the right middle cerebral artery. Due to the evolution time of the stroke, usual thrombolysis was contraindicated. Therefore, a thrombolysis with Tenecteplase was used with reversal of symptoms without symptomatic bleeding and with recovery of baseline functionality.
