Abstract
- A new study conducted by researchers at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) explores the successful thrombolysis of an ischemic stroke immediately following transurethral resection of the prostate in an elderly male. The study highlights the controversy surrounding thrombolysis in postoperative stroke due to the potential risks of surgical site hemorrhage and intracerebral hemorrhage. The patient in the case study recovered completely and was discharged one week later. This is the first reported case of successful thrombolysis in a patient developing acute ischemic stroke following major urologic surgery on the day of surgery. [Extracted from the article]
