Figure 2
Case 14. (a) DSA of left ICA arterial phase. AP view shows an occlusion of the left M1. (b) Guiding catheter in left MCA, the distal tip of the microcatheter, and the microwire have crossed the occluded portion of the L M1 and moved through the thrombi into M2. This injection shows the distal end of the thrombus. (c) This AP view shows the terminal radiopaque marker of Solitaire FR device which indicates the start of deployment. (d) DSA of L ICA after the stent retrieval shows that the distal L MCA branches have been completely opened.
