A 40-year-old woman (patient 3) presented with acute infarction in the right MCA territory. A, DWI shows acute infarction in the right MCA territory (NIHSS score is 18 points). B, Lateral view of the right ICA angiogram shows complete occlusion of the inferior M2 segment (arrow). C and D, Lateral radiograph and angiogram after Wingspan stent deployment reveal partial recanalization with residual thrombosis of inferior M2 segment. E, Urokinase is administered for remnant thrombus in cortical arteries after Wingspan deployment. F, Final angiogram reveals near-complete recanalization (TICI grade 2b with sufficient collateral flow) of the MCA (NIHSS is improved up to 5 points at 7 days postprocedure).
