Basilarisverschluss – was tun?

Beim akuten ischämischen Schlaganfall handelt es sich um ein unmittelbar lebensbedrohliches und zeitkritisches Krankheitsbild. Der Verschluss der A. basilaris stellt aufgrund seiner hohen Mortalität und seines schlechten klinischen Outcomes sowie seiner variablen Symptomatik einen Sonderfall in Bezug auf Diagnostik, Therapie und Prognoseabschätzung dar.
