Abstract:
We describe a technique for performing clot angioplasty using a single lumen balloon catheter for thrombolytic administration, check injections of the distal circulation and for angioplasty. We believe this reduces both the time of the procedure and the risk of vessel rupture.Keywords: head; neck; angiography; angioplasty; thrombolysis; brain; brain stem
