Symptoms of BAO
Stroke Presentation
• 80% of strokes have typical signs or symptoms such
as aphasia, hemiparesis, facial droop, dysarthria.
• 15% have only subtle signs such as vision loss,
diplopia, dysconjugate gaze, vertigo, hearing loss,
ataxia.
• 3% may present with catastrophic
unresponsiveness from basilar artery stroke.
• 1% may present with isolated altered mental status.
Based on the temporal profile of the symptoms, BA
thrombosis may manifest in at least these 3 different ways
• Sudden onset of severe motor and bulbar symptoms
with impaired consciousness
• Gradual or stuttering course of a combination of the
symptoms described above that ends with disabling
motor and bulbar symptoms, impaired consciousness,
or both
• Prodromal symptoms that may include loss of vision,
diplopia, dysarthria, vertigo, hemiparesis, paresthesias,
imbalance, and convulsive-like movements (these
symptoms may precede monophasic basilar artery
thrombosis by several days or even by months)
Prodromal Symptoms
QESTION 2
Time window for recanalization in
basilar artery occlusion. Why longer?
• Occlusion of the basilar artery is one of the
most devastating forms of ischemic stroke.
• It carries a high mortality of 85–95% if
recanalization does not occur, and a
substantial part of survivors suffer severe
disability, some being in locked in state.
