FIG 1. Anteroposterior right carotid angiogram.
A, Angiogram before the procedure showing total occlusion of the terminal internal carotid artery (arrow).
B, Angiogram during the procedure demonstrating the microsnare basket (arrowheads) at the level of the clot, which is protruding from the microcatheter tip (arrow).
C, Angiogram obtained after removal of the microsnare with the microcatheter and deflation of the coaxial proximal balloon showing that the clot has been removed, and normal flow has been reestablished in the previously occluded vessel without distal branch occlusion.
