FIG 2. Patient 3.
A, Initial lateral-view angiogram of the left common carotid artery shows ICA occlusion and extensive thrombus (arrows) extending into the distal common carotid artery.
B, After using the Possis AngioJet in the distal common carotid artery and ICA, wide ICA patency is reestablished.
C, This allowed access to the intracranial circulation, which was then treated with intraarterial thrombolysis, leading to a good angiographic result.
