Abstract

With the increasing incidence of ischemic stroke and the younger age of onset, active and effective recanalization of blood vessels and recovery of blood supply are important in super-early treatment of stroke and the functional rehabilitation in the late stage. At present, the main methods of vascular recanalization are intravenous thrombolysis, arterial thrombolysis, mechanical recanalization and bridging therapy. This paper introduces the current internationally accepted super-early recanalization methods in ischemic stroke, and discusses some controversial points in the clinical practice.
