A Case Report on the Treatment of Multiple Cerebral Vascular Stenosis with Aortic Arch Ulcer Plaque Using Probucol Combined with Atorvastatin
Preventing the occurrence and recurrence of stroke is the top priority of the treatment strategy for ischemic cerebrovascular disease.Patients with multiple cerebral vascular stenosis and aortic arch ulcer plaques have a significantly increased risk of recurrent ischemic stroke.This paper introduces a case of probucol combined with atorvastatin in the treatment of multiple cerebral vascular stenosis with aortic arch ulcer plaque.This acute ischemic stroke patient presented with mild neurological impairment.During his hospitalization,multiple cerebral vascular stenosis and aortic arch ulcer plaques were discovered.After 3 months of sequential dual antiplatelet therapy,aspirin therapy was continued and combined with probucol and atorvastatin throughout the course for enhanced lipid-lowering antioxidant therapy.After 25 months of follow-up,there was no recurrence of stroke in this patient,and all imaging and hematological indicators remained stable.
