Simultaneous Occurrence and Interaction of Hypoperfusion and Embolism in a Patient With Severe Middle Cerebral Artery Stenosis
Stroke, 06/12/09
Schreiber S et al. - In this patient, adherent thrombus formation resulted in an increasing severity of the stenosis with subsequent vasodilatation and diminution of flow resistance in the depending vascular distribution territory. MRI suggested that adherent thrombi were predominantly washed into terminal supply and border zone brain regions, ie, into regions with supposed maximum vasodilatation and least flow resistance immediately before thrombus avulsion. Preferred wash-in of emboli into regions with low blood flow resistance might be an additional mechanism besides impaired washout in patients with severe large artery disease.
