The age dependence of CSF-TP supports that age-partitioned reference intervals will be more accurate than a single cutoff, particularly in patients with advancing age.
We describe a case of a patient who presented with an acute stroke and thrombosed aneurysm of the same vessel. We review the literature on acute stroke management in the setting of an ischemic stroke caused by a thrombosed aneurysm, including intravenous thrombolysis and mechanical thrombectomy. We found that it is unclear whether thrombolysis is safe in these cases. Future case series may be helpful in answering the question.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
