    BackgroundStandard therapy for acute ischaemic stroke is the intravenous thrombolysis with rtPA. A combined therapy with intravenous bridging and consecutive intraarterial thrombolysis and mechanical thrombectomy is a relatively new option in patients with proximal vessel occlusion.Patients And Methods10 Patients with a CTA proven proximal vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation (ACI, carotis bifurcation, MCA) in CTA were treated with a combined therapy with i. v. and i. a. thrombolysis and thrombectomy with a Solitaire FR stent device.ResultsAll Patients were recanalized, the NIHSS changed from 15.6 to 3.3. 8 out of 10 patients had nearly no symptoms when dismissed. There were no direct therapeutic complications.ConclusionCombined therapy with i. v. and i. a. thrombolysis and thombectomy with the Solitaire FR stent device is a promising option in patients with acute proximal vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation.© Georg Thieme Verlag KG Stuttgart · New York.
