(Baohatinh.vn) - A patient with a severe stroke was successfully treated by doctors at Ha Tinh General Hospital using a mechanical device to remove blood clots.

Patient HVC (77 years old, residing in Dong Loc commune) was admitted to the hospital in a coma, completely paralyzed on one side of his body. After a CT scan, it was determined that he had a cerebral infarction and a large blood vessel occlusion, so the patient was quickly taken to the intervention room.

After the intervention, the patient recovered and had good movement of his limbs.

With the support of Dr. Hoang Hai Phu - Stroke Center, Hue Central Hospital, Dr. Nguyen Sy Trinh - Head of the Department of Nephrology and Musculoskeletal (Provincial General Hospital) and his team performed intervention to re-open the cerebral blood vessels by removing blood clots with mechanical instruments. After 45 minutes of intervention, the blocked cerebral blood vessels were completely re-opened. Up to now, the patient is awake, hemiplegia has been restored, and his limbs can move normally.

In the past 3 days, this is the second stroke case that doctors at the Provincial General Hospital have successfully treated using a mechanical device to remove blood clots after being transferred by experts from Hue Central Hospital.

The team successfully performed cerebral revascularization intervention using thrombectomy for HVC patient.
