Management of Stroke in a Coronary Artery Disease Patient after Major Colorectal Surgical Procedure
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
The incidence of LV thrombus is approximately 40% following an Anterior Myocardial Infarction(1) . Embolism from thrombus is regarded as the most common cause of Stroke following MI with an incidence as high as 10% (prethrombolytic era) & 2-3% (thrombolytic era) (2). A patient with apical thrombus has a high risk of perioperative thromboembolism (3), which could be avoided, to an extent with judicious use of anticoagulants.
