There's a disease, and it's menacing! It can make people unable to walk, unable to speak normally, and coma in just a few minutes, and it has a high morbidity, high mortality rate, and high disability rate! This disease is called "stroke", which is often referred to as "stroke".
Recently, the interventional team of the Department of Neurology of Liling Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine successfully performed mechanical thrombectomy for a patient with acute ischemic stroke.
Uncle Fu was found by his family and rushed to the emergency center of Liling Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine after being found by his family, and immediately activated the green channel of the stroke center after the stroke team assessed his condition, and improved the necessary examinations such as electrocardiogram, blood glucose, and head CT, and the patient was diagnosed with large vessel occlusive cerebral infarction.

The patient was in critical condition, had a history of atrial fibrillation in the past, and had an indication for emergency interventional thrombectomy after strict screening and evaluation. After communicating with the family, the interventional team of the Department of Neurology quickly performed emergency mechanical thrombectomy for him, the patient's consciousness deepened to coma, and the intraoperative cerebral angiography showed that the M1 segment of the right middle cerebral artery was occluded, and the occluded blood vessel was opened within 25 minutes, and the blood flow returned to normal.
Due to the timely treatment and immediate results, the patient recovered well after the operation, the muscle strength of the left upper limb recovered from grade 0 (unable to move) to grade 3 (able to lift), and the muscle strength of the left lower limb recovered from grade 1 to grade 4, and the patient is currently hospitalized in the neurology department for further treatment.
How much do you know about stroke?
Ischemic stroke is a general term for necrosis of brain tissue caused by narrowing or occlusion of the arteries supplying to the brain and insufficient blood supply to the brain, also known as cerebral infarction.
When cerebral blood flow is blocked, about 1.9 million brain cells die every minute, and time is the brain, and the acute treatment of stroke is particularly important.
What is mechanical thrombectomy?
Mechanical thrombectomy is an important means for the treatment of large vessel occlusion in acute ischemic stroke, which is the method of endovascular intervention, in which the thrombectomy device is placed in the occlusion of the large vessel in the skull, and the thrombus in the occlusion is removed by the catheter to restore the smooth blood flow in the occlusion site.
Within 6 hours after the onset of stroke, receiving thrombectomy surgery will significantly improve the improvement rate and reduce the mortality and disability rates!
