Abstract

Objective To evaluate the clinical effects of intra-artery thrombolysis therapy for acute ischemic cerebral infarction (AICI). Methods 7 patients of AICI in 8 hours were treated with intra-arterial thrombolysis using urokinase of median dose 5 million IU. They were assessed by neurologists using National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score at admittance to the hospital. Clinical outcome was assessed after 3 months and classified as good for modified rankin scale (MRS) scores of 0 to 3 and poor for 4+0.6. Results 4 patients received complete recanalization of this group and 3 patient partial recanalization as follow-up. 6 cases had good outcome and 1 poor. Conclusion Intra-artery thrombolysis therapy for AICI might be safe and effective. It could increase as higher clinical treatment effects.
