  4. Purpose • Stroke is the 3rd leading cause of death in our country as well in the world. • Furthermore, it causes labor loss especially within middle-aged patient group because of its morbidity. • We present our experience about 40 patients who had intra-arterial stroke treatment in our clinic.

  5. MaterialsandMethods • WecarriedoutDigitalSubtractionAngiogaphy(DSA) andintraarterialtreatmenttothepatientsadmittedtotheemergencydepartmenthavingstroke, neurologicdeficitsand not havingintracranialhemorrhage on ComputerizedTomography (CT) between 2008 and 2013.

  6. Results • Therewere 27 (67.5%) male and 13 (32.5%) female patients and the average age was63.5 years(23-78). • The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores were 7–29 (20.5) at the first initial neurological examination.

  7. Results • Therewereinfarcts on magneticresonanceimaging (MRI) examinations in middlecerebralartery (MCA) territory of 35, anteriorcerebralartery (ACA) of 2 andbasilarartery of 3 patients. • Infarctswerepresent in MCA territory of 33 (MCA M1: 6, MCA M2: 11, MCA M3: 6 and MCA total infarcts: 10), internalcarotidartery (ICA) of 2, ACA of 2 andbasilarartery of 3 patients on DSA examinations.

  8. Results • Sixpatientshavedied in thefollow-upperiod, 4 because of intracranialhemorrhageand 2 of sepsis. • The tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) dose applied to the patients was 12 mg (6-20 mg).

  9. Results • TheNIHSS scores after 24 hours were between 7– 24 (6-20 on average). • Statisticallysignificant improvement in the NIHSS scores after the intra-arterial treatment was observed (p ≤ 0,05).

  17. Conclusions • Intraarterialtreatmentforacuteischemicstroke is an approvedandreadilyappliedmethodrecently. Intraarterialtreatment is especiallyvaluable in ICA andproximal MCA occlusions, becausetrombolyticagent can be easilyinjectedintothetargetedthrombosedsegment.

  18. Conclusions • Whilecompleterecanalisationwasachieved in 30% andpartial in 48% of patientswiththrombolytictherapy, theprocedurewasunsuccessful in 22% of them. Clinicalstatus of patientswithcompleteandpartialrecanalisationgotbetter at 3rdmonth.

  19. Conclusions • With this study, we wanted to share our experience in intraarterial thrombolytic therapy and emphasize the needfor larger series of data in literature.
