IntroductionEfficacy and safety of intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) in patients undergoing mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is still debatable. However, IVT's efficacy on stent retriever (SR) and aspiration thrombectomy (ASP) outcomes specifically remain unclear. ResultsWe included four randomized controlled trials with 1176 patients.

Baseline characteristics and technical and clinical outcomes were compared between the two groups, with subgroup analysis in first-line thrombectomy techniques, including ADAPT, stent retriever, and Solumbra. In terms of clinical outcomes, the BGC group had a lower rate of distal embolization (overall: 8.8%

The commonest causes of MINOCA include: atherosclerotic causes such as plaque rupture or erosion with spontaneous thrombolysis, and non-atherosclerotic causes such as coronary vasospasm (sometimes called variant angina or Prinzmetal's angina), coronary embolism or thrombosis, possibly microvascular dysfunction.

It was treated with and dual "kissing balloons" and drug eluting stents. Here is the post stent ECG: There is greater than 50% resolution of ST elevation (all but diagnostic of successful reperfusion) and Terminal T-wave inversion (also highly suggestive of successful reperfusion). TIMI flow is 0. Door to balloon time was 51 minutes.

The stent–aspiration (Solumbra) technique uses a large bore aspiration catheter with a stent retriever device for potential synergistic effects. The technique involves deploying a stent retriever through microcatheter and large bore aspiration catheter like ACE 68 (Penumbra, Inc.),
