Stroke physicians and neurointerventionists should keep in mind that a clot is a vital and rapidly changing tissue.

Abstract
Stroke physicians and neurointerventionists should keep in mind that a clot is a vital and rapidly changing tissue. The sooner IV rt-PA is administered and endovascular thrombectomy is performed after stroke onset, the higher is the chance to dissolve the large vessel occluding thrombus and the better will be the outcome. That is a non-“neuro-centric” but “clot-centric” view of the ischemic stroke therapeutic time window. Indeed, time is not only brain but it is also clot: time lost is clot resolution lost.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
