Mechanical thrombectomy using neurovascular catheter from radial artery during acute myocardial infarction: A case report
Coronary occlusion due to large thrombus is frequently encountered during ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Despite guidelines discourage this practice, often thrombus aspiration is necessary to reduce thrombotic burden and to prevent embolization. We report a case of mechanical thrombectomy with a Neurovascular Catheter from radial artery during inferior STEMI.
