Thrombotic Occlusion of the Middle Cerebral Artery Stroke 23:1761-1766, Ueda,S.,et al, 1992 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract Good collateral circulation was associated with improved outcomes both clinically and by computed tomography in patients with occlusion of the proximal and distal portions of the MI segment but not in those with M2 occlusion.It is reasonable to assume that not only collateral circulation but also the site of occlusion plays an important role in the outcome of middle cerebral artery occlusion.Our finding that good collateral circulation improves the outcome for thrombotic occlusion of the proximal and distal M1 segments supports the possible benefits of such surgery.
