Real-Time Distal, Multifocal, Repeated Lenticulostriate Bleeding Points during Thrombectomy in a Patient with Acute Variable M1 Occlusion: A Case Report and a Literature Review

BACKGROUND: Intracerebral hemorrhage can be classified as either primary or secondary to various conditions such as vascular anomalies or stroke. We present a case of real-time incident detected on digital subtraction angiography (DSA) during thrombectomy in a patient with acute variable M1 occlusion.MATERIALS AND METHODS: A comprehensive literature search of the PubMed and Scopus databases was conducted: this is the first real-time visualization using DSA of a basal ganglia hematoma formation secondary to distal multifocal bleeding points just before a thrombectomy in a patient with acute variable M1 occlusion.CONCLUSION: We suggest that the positions of the clot before and during the procedure be compared always.
