- W4367018750 abstract "Introduction Infective endocarditis (IE) often presents as an acute ischemic stroke (AIS) secondary to a thromboembolic event leading to large vessel occlusion (LVO). These patients are at significant risk for intracerebral hemorrhage when given intravenous thrombolytics (IT) and are therefore better candidates for mechanical thrombectomy (MT). Current reports in the literature are divided on the safety of MT in this setting and no randomized control studies exist. With the advent of modern thrombectomy devices, we believe MT might be safe in this patient population. Methods Here we report a patient with IE who presented with LVO stroke (MCA syndrome) and underwent MT leading to first‐pass Thrombolysis inCerebral Infarction (TICI) score of 3 revascularization. In addition to presenting our case, we did a comprehensive review of the current literature on this topic. Results A thirty‐year‐old female with a history of cocaine abuse presented with acute onset left hemiplegia, dysarthria, and rightward gaze deviation. NIHSS was 19 and she presented 90 minutes from her last known well time . Computed Tomography (CT) head and CT perfusion imaging demonstrated a large MCA distribution stroke, an AlbertaStrokeProgram Early CT Score (ASPECTS) of 10, with significant perfusion mismatch of right MCA territory. CT angiography (CTA) confirmed a proximal large vessel occlusion (LVO) at the proximal M1. On initial assessment, the patient was febrile with a temperature of 40 degrees Celsius with a high clinical suspicion for IE; therefore, intravenous thrombolytic was not administered. MT was performed with one pull of stent retrieval under aspiration led to a successful opening of the vessel with TICI score of 3. Positive cocaine on urine toxicology was noted as well as, two sets of gram‐positive blood cultures which later resulted in Staph Aureus, oxacillin susceptible, unremarkable transthoracic echo, but with TEE demonstrating vegetative thickening within atrial aspects of both anterior andposterior mitral valve leaflets(Figure1). On hospital day two, magnetic resonance imaging of the brain shows small acute infarct with no bleed. The patient underwent a mitral valve replacement on hospital day nine. The patient was discharged to rehabilitation facilities with an NIHSS of two for mild left facial droop and mild left arm weakness; her degree of disability was measured as a modified Rankin Scale (mRS) one at 3 months. Conclusions In case IE is suspected, giving IV tPA (tissue‐type plasminogen activator) is contraindicated as it increases the chance of hemorrhagic complications and when LVO is confirmed in the setting of AIS, MT might be safe and effective to be considered ." @default.
