<p>Apparatus and methods for treatment of stroke are provided. In a preferred embodiment, the present invention disposes at least one catheter (41) having a distal occlusive member (42) in either the common carotid artery (CCA) or both the vertebral artery (VA) and the CCA on the hemisphere of the cerebral occlusion. Blood flow in the opposing carotid and/or vertebral arteries may be inhibited. Retrograde or antegrade flow may be provided through either catheter (41) independently to effectively control cerebral flow characteristics. Under such controlled flow conditions, a thrombectomy device (200) may be used to treat the occlusion, and any emboli generated are directed into the catheter(s).</p> |
