Stroke Thrombolysis—Growing Pains
Mayo Clinic ProceedingsVol. 72Issue 11p1090–1092Published in issue: November, 1997- Louis R. Caplan
Cited in Scopus: 12Although thrombolysis has become standard treatment for patients with coronary artery thrombosis and myocardial infarction, the use of thrombolytic therapy in patients with acute strokes is a much more recent and more uncertain strategy. The attractiveness of thrombolytic drugs for stroke is their potential to reverse even severe neurologic deficits by lysing occlusive thrombi that deprive vital brain regions of blood. In this issue of the Mayo Clinic Proceedings (pages 1005 to 1013), Wijdicks and colleagues from the Mayo Clinic stroke service describe their recent experience with use of intra-arterial delivery of the thrombolytic drug urokinase to treat nine patients who had acute occlusions of the basilar artery and severe neurologic deficits. - Editorial
