BACKGROUND: Although extracranial internal carotid artery (e-ICA) occlusion is a common pathology in patients undergoing intravenous thrombolysis for treatment of acute ischemic stroke, no data on e-ICA recanalization rate or potential effects on outcome are yet available.
METHODS AND RESULTS: This study included 52 consecutive patients with e-ICA occlusion and ischemic stroke undergoing standard intravenous thrombolysis. The rate of e-ICA recanalization was 30.8% [95%CI, 18.2-43.3], documented at 3.5 [2.0-11.8] (median [IQR]) days after stroke, as compared to 8.6% [95%CI, 3.5-13.7] in a series of 116 consecutive patients with symptomatic e-ICA occlusion not undergoing thrombolysis (P<0.001 for difference). Functional outcome three months after stroke did not significantly differ for those with or without e-ICA recanalization following intravenous thrombolysis (modified Rankin scale ≤2: 31.3% vs. 22.2%, odds ratio 1.6 [95%CI, 0.4-5.9], P = 0.506). In patients with e-ICA occlusion of atherothrombotic origin, recanalization resulted in most instances in residual high-grade stenosis (13 of 14).
CONCLUSIONS: Recanalization of e-ICA occlusion after stroke thrombolysis occurred in about one third of patients. Although e-ICA recanalization had no significant effect on patient outcome, control sonography in the early days after thrombolysis is recommended for the detection of potential residual e-ICA stenosis.
