They are an uncommon cause of\ncerebral stroke, and simultaneous involvement of the aorto-iliac vessels is extremely\nrare with 8 cases reported in the literature\nover the past 10 years. We provide a pictorial\nillustration of the radiological, surgical, and\nhistopathological findings, which differentiates our case from others in the literature.\nCase presentation \u2013 A 41-year-old female\nwas admitted with right side weakness and\naphasia (NIHSS score of 15). CT and CT-angiography revealed hyperacute brain ischemia\nwith occlusion of left M1-segment of MiddleCerebral-Artery. The patient was shifted to\na thrombectomy-capable center, where the\nleft femoral pulse was found to be absence\nand the right femoral artery had weak pulsations. Mechanical thrombectomy of left MCA\nwas done. Angiography showed occlusions\nof the distal abdominal aorta, the bilateral\ncommon iliac arteries, the left external iliac\nartery and the left common femoral artery.\nSurgical embolectomy of peripheral vessels\nwas done. Pathohistology of clots taken out\nfrom the cerebral as well as peripheral vessels revealed cardiac myxoma. Patient had\ncomplete recovery of the stroke as well as\nthe lower limb ischemia.\nConclusion \u2013 Atrial myxoma is a rare cause\nof cerebral stroke requiring a thorough\ninvestigation to reach a diagnosis. Mechanical thrombectomy is a safe and effective\nmethod for treatment of such strokes.\nImportant to emphasize the need for a\nmulti-disciplinary team in the management\nof distal embolization in these cases. Data in\nthe literature with regards to its treatment is\nlimited.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.18071\/isz.78.0199","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,4]],"date-time":"2025-06-04T07:42:11Z","timestamp":1749022931000},"page":"199-206","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Mechanical thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke with simultaneous aorto-iliac occlusion due to cardiac myxoma dislodgement - Case report with review of the literature"],"prefix":"10.18071","volume":"78","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8266-4123","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lazar","family":"Lazovic","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7874-338X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Petar","family":"Bosnjakovic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2365-0132","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yousef A.
