Cerebrovascular diseases are a significant cause of mortality and morbidity
worldwide, in particular those with large vessels occlusion (LVO). Coronavirus
disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a global crisis rapidly since its initial
outbreak in Wuhan, China, in December, 2019. Stroke due to LVO needs rapid
assessment and timely endovascular intervention which can be very challenging
during the time of pandemic where you need to deliver proper, safe, and timely
care to acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with LVO, yet, protecting healthcare
workers and existing patients at the medical facility. In this article, we share
our local experience in the stroke unit at Aseer Central Hospital which is the
main hub of stroke patients in the southwestern part of Saudi Arabia and the
primary regional COVID center to provide guidance to perform smooth, safe, and
swift mechanical thrombectomy during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic as well
as possible similar future situations.
