PERMEABILITY VALUES IN THE PCT MULTIMODE PROTOCOL AS PREDICTOR OF HEMORRHAGIC TRANSFORMATION AFTER THROMBECTOMY IN ACUTE STROKE
Journal Title: PARIPEX-Indian Journal of Research - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 9
Abstract
BACKGOURND AND PURPOSE: Permeability is altered in the acute stroke and related to hemorrhagic transformation. We aimed to compare the ischemic cerebral area in hemorrhage tissue after thrombectomy in comparisson with ischemic area with no haemorragic transformation. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We retrospectively found 190 patients who underwent to mechanical thrombectomy, with occlusion of the M1 segment of the middle cerebral artery, the internal carotid artery or both completion of a stroke CT imaging work-up including non-contrast CT at admission and CT control at 24 hours post-ictus RESULTS: 82 patients met the inclusion criteria. The average value for ischemic area in the hemorrhagic transformation was 2.63 and the non-hemorrhagic transformation was 2.74 with no statistical differences in the permeability values between the group with hemorrhagic transformation and the group without P=.766. CONCLUSIONS: The values of permeability were not useful to predict hemorrhagic transformation after thrombectomy with intravenous thrombolysis as some studies have shown.
