Rheolytic Catheter and Thrombolysis of Dural Venous Sinus Thrombosis: A Case Series

Abstract: Mechanical clot lysis is a powerful technique for immediate restoration of antegrade venous flow in dural sinus thrombosis. In most patients, the superior sagittal sinuses and contralateral transverse sinuses could be accessed with the 5-French rheolytic catheter.

“…It exhibits a variety of symptoms mechanical thrombofragmentation using devices such as the microsnare, mechanical thrombectomy using a stent retriever, and thromboaspiration using the Penumbra aspiration system. [4][5][6][7] Methods such as thromboaspiration combined with conventional thrombolytic therapy, mechanical thrombofragmentation, and mechanical thrombectomy have also been reported. [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] According to the systematic review of endovascular treatment for CVST performed at 42 institutions (185 cases) between January 1995 and February 2014 by Siddiqui et al, the mainstay of treatment was AngioJet (40%), followed by the snare (31%), balloon angioplasty (25%), and Penumbra system (7%), and endovascular treatment with that of heparin anticoagulant therapy is in progress, and its results are awaited.…”

“…Previously, mechanical thrombolysis was exclusively performed for patients with severe manifestations (Table 1). 1,4,6,[8][9][10][11] Fibrin is the main component of the thrombus responsible for sinus thrombosis. Local thrombolytic therapy with fibrinolytic agents, such as urokinase and recombinant tissue plasminogen activator, is performed as a proactive treatment for sinus thrombosis.…”
