A case of Early Neurological Recovery from Stroke by Recannalization in Early Stage

입원 당시 제증상의 소실을 보여 일과성 허혈성 발작으로 의심되었으나, 조기 뇌혈관 재개통으로 뇌경색 초기에 증상의 완전한 회복을 보인 환자 1례가 있어 이에 보고하는 바이다.

Objective: The purpose of this case study is to show a case of early neurological recovery from stroke by recannalization. Methods: The patient was admitted from 12 July, 2004 to 26 July, 2004. The patient received Herb-Medication and Acupuncture Therapy. Brain MRI and Tc-99m HM-PAO brain SPECT was used to diagnose and prognose. Results: The patient fully recovered within a few hours. She was diagnosed as acute infarction in Lt. BG by using brain MRI. Tc-99m HM-PAO brain SPECT showed focal increased perfusion at Lt. BG. Conclusions: We suggest that the important thing to recovery from stroke is recannalization of cerebral arteries in early stage.
