Intravenous thrombolytic therapy for acute anterior ischemic stroke: Experience at the French Military Teaching Hospital in Toulon from 2003 to 2014.

CONCLUSION: After 12 years of practice, our stroke unit has produced results similar to those of the major clinical studies in terms of safety and efficacy. High NIHSS scores on admission and a lack of neurological improvement during the first 24h of thrombolysis due to failure of early recanalization were identified as independent predictive factors of poor functional outcomes.
