  • Title: [Myocardial infarction, late fibrinolysis and resolving cerebral embolism].
    Author: Lescure M, Lagorce P, Caussanel JP, Malbec M.
    Journal: Ann Cardiol Angeiol (Paris); 1993 Jan; 42(1):25-7. PubMed ID: 8480981.
    Abstract:
    The authors report a case of a cerebral embolism, with a rapidly resolving course, during late fibrinolysis using tissue plasminogen activator in a patient with a posterolateral myocardial infarction. A review of the literature is used as basis for considering the effects of fibrinolytic treatment on left intraventricular thrombi during the acute phase of myocardial infarction. The risk of systemic embolism during such treatment is stressed.
