Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of local intra-arterial thrombolysis (LIT) with urokinase in patients with acute ischemic stroke.Methods One hundred and sixty two patients with acute ischemic stroke were treated with LIT by using urokinase and relationship of reconalization for different occluded arteries with the Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) scores three months later was analyzed. Results Angiography showed occlusion of the cerebral artery in 162 patients, among which 119(73.5%) patients showed the sites in the internal carotid artery system, with 27 occlusions in the internal carotid artery (ICA)trunk, 63(38.89%) in the middle cerebral artery (MCA)and 29(17.9%) in the anterior cerebral artery (ACA), and the remaining 43(26.5%)patients of vertebrobasilar artery (VBA); successful recanalization was achieved in 103 (63.58%)patients, including 11 (40.7%), 49(77.8%), 20(69.0%) and 23(53.3%), respectively, after intraarterial infusion of urokinase. Unsuccessful recanalization occurred in 59patients (36.42%). Followed up for 90 days, 90 (55.6%) patients obtained a good outcome; 72(44.44%) had poor prognosis including 20(12.35%) deaths. 8 patients associated with hemorrhage (4.9%) 73 with reperfusion injury (45.1%) and 5 arterial re-occlusion (3.1%). Based on statistic analysis, ICA trunk and VBA had low ratio of successful recanalization with poor clinic prognosis MCA and ACA possessed high ratio of successful recanalization and good clinic outcomes. There was a significant relationship between arterial recanalization rate and clinic prognosis (r=0.86).Conclusions Successful recanalization of cerebral occlusive artery by using intra-arterial thrombolysis could improve clinic prognosis in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Clinical prognosis has a significant relationship with both initial treatment time and arterial recanalization rate.

Objective To explore the causes and preventive measures of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage in 217 patients with acute cerebral ischemic stroke treated with local intra-arterial urokinase. Methods From February1999 to June 2004, 217 patients were treated for acute ischemic stroke with local intra-arterial urokinase in our hospital. Factors associated with symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage of intra-arterial thrombolysis were analyzed by Stepwise logistic regression to identify some factors relating the prediction symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage. Results Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage occurred in 8 cases (3.7%). Predictors of the symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage were the elevated systolic blood pressure before therapy (odds ratio, 1.096; 95% CI, 1.006 to 1.194) and urokinase (UK) treatment (odds ratio , 1.068; 95% CL, 1.053 to 1.247). Risk of secondary symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage was increased with elevated systolic blood pressure. Other factors like age, initial treating time, NIHSS, diabetes and collateral circulation did not predict the symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage respectively. Conclusions Predictors of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage after local intra-arterial infusion of urokinase for acute ischemic stroke were the elevated systolic blood pressure before therapy and urokinase (UK) treatment.
