Individualized intravenous thrombolytic strategy for acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion on the era of mechanical thrombectomy: cases report.

Intravenous thrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke within 4.5 h after the onset of symptoms has become a standard therapy that is recommended by many trials and clinical guidelines. As on the era of mechanical thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusions, whether intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) is still necessary, and how to choose the optimal dose are still controversy. Here, we reported two cases of acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusions that both achieved complete recanalization after IVT. Then, IVT was terminated in advance, and dynamic surveillance by DSA was performed to achieve individual treatment. However, both of the cases presented with hemorrhagic transformation. We analyzed the probable reasons and put forward thoughts from ourselves.
