Abstract
|
|
|
|
Acute ischemic stroke is often the first manifestation of essential thrombocythemia (ET). We report two cases of acute ischemic stroke in patients with ET who suffered acute thrombus formation in a large cerebral artery with related cortical infarction. We suggest that platelet aggregation and its distal embolization may occur in large intracranial arteries in patients with ET.
