  • Title: Thrombolytic therapy in a patient with acute ischemic stroke caused by aortic dissection.
    Author: Noel M, Short J, Farooq MU.
    Journal: Clin Neurol Neurosurg; 2010 Oct; 112(8):695-6. PubMed ID: 20427122.
    Abstract:
    The current medical literature indicates a poor outcome in patients with ischemic stroke in the presence of aortic dissection, especially in those who underwent thrombolytic therapy. We report a favorable outcome in a patient with acute stroke who received rt-PA and was later found to have Stanford type A aortic dissection.
