Abstract:
We report the treatment process of a patient with acute vertebral artery occlusion complicated by top of the basilar artery syndrome after arterial thrombolysis.The top branches of vertebral artery and basilar artery were patent after the mechanical and drug thrombolysis again. The prognosis of the patient was good. The modified Rankin scale score was 1. It suggested that in addition to the arterial local thrombolysis was effective to the lesions themselves, it also had good efficacy for the newly developed embolic complications during the process of thrombolysis.
