Effect of mechanical thrombectomy with Solitaire stent in the treatment of acute intracranial large artery occlusion / 中国综合临床

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of mechanical thrombectomy with Solitaire AB stent in the treatment of large intracranial artery occlusions.Methods The calinical data of 15 patients with acute stroke(more than 3.5 h intravenous thrombolysis time window) who were carried out arterial embolectomy with Solitaire AB stent in the No.264th Hospital of the Chinese People's Liberation Army were retrospective analyzed.There were 11 cases of middle cerebral artery(MCA),2 cases of internal carotid artery (ICA),1 case of vertebral artery(VA) pluse basilar artery(BA),and 1 case of anterior artery(AA).The recanalization occluded situation and surgical complications were analyzed,NIHSS score of preoperatively and at discharge were compared.Results In 15 cases,there were 14 cases of totally recanalization,1 case of partial recanalization.Two case with MCA stenosis and 1 case with VA stenosis after the recanalization were accepted stent angioplasty,2 csase died.NIHSS score of 13 cases survival patients increased from (22.85±4.75) scores on admission to (4.39 ±3.67) scores out of hospital,and the difference was statistically sinificant(t=2.752,P ＜0.01).Conclusion The mechanical thrombectomy with Solitaire AB stent can get high recanalization rate,fewer complications and good clinical outcome on patients with large intracranial artery occlusions.For more than venous or arterial thrombolysis time window,the mechanical thrombectomy can be considered within the 8 h after comprehensive evaluation.
