Direct Common Carotid Artery Puncture for Endovascular Treatment of Acute Large Vessel Ischemic Stroke in a Patient with Aortic Coarctation.
Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases : the Official Journal of National Stroke Association 2017 November
Coarctation of the aorta is a condition that typically presents in childhood as a congenital malformation. This report describes a case of acute right middle cerebral artery ischemic stroke, which occurred in a patient with aortic coarctation that remained undiagnosed until her eighth decade. Complex anatomical variant presented a significant technical challenge in establishing endovascular access for mechanical thrombectomy using standard femoral, brachial, or radial artery approaches. Direct right common carotid puncture was performed successfully with subsequent reperfusion and full neurological recovery. Direct carotid artery puncture represents an alternative to standard transfemoral access in the event of stroke in a patient with difficult anatomy.
