Intracranial Mechanical Recanalization and Fibrinolysis Using a Single Hyperglide Balloon Microcatheter: Technical Note

Intracranial Mechanical Recanalization and Fibrinolysis Using a Single Hyperglide Balloon Microcatheter Technical Note

Endovascular treatment of acute blockage of the middle cerebral artery may require a combination of mechanical recanalization and chemical fibrinolysis. Using a single microcatheter to perform both techniques helps shorten procedure time.
