Clinical characteristics of progressive stroke during acute infarction in the territory of the internal carotid artery
We investigated the clinical characteristics of progressive stroke on admission. The subjects comprised 300 patients who were admitted on the day of onset of cerebral infarction in the territory of the internal carotid arteries and who showed a low density area on CT images within 5 days.

Zusammenfassung: | We investigated the clinical characteristics of progressive stroke on admission. The subjects comprised 300 patients who were admitted on the day of onset of cerebral infarction in the territory of the internal carotid arteries and who showed a low density area on CT images within 5 days. These patients were treated with sodium ozagrel. Of the total of 300 patients, 221 had cerebral infarction in the territory of the deep perforate arteries, 56 had cerebral infarction in the territory of the cortical branch of the middle cerebral artery (MCA), and the remaining 23 demonstrated cerebral infarction throughout the MCA territory. The results obtained may be summarized as follows : 1) Progressive stroke was observed in a total or 29 (9.7%) of the patients, including 9 (4.1%) of the patients with infarction of the deep perforate arteries. 9 (14.8%) of the patients with infarction of the cortical branch of the MCA, and 11 (47.8%) of the patients with cerebral infarction throughout the MCA territory. Progressive stroke was seen significantly more frequently in patients with cerebral infarction throughout the MCA territory than in those with cerebral infarction of the deep perforate arteries (p |
