Dallah Hospital AlNakheel in Riyadh performed the first brain catheterization to remove a clot on a woman in her seventies with a severe stroke in a record time after the patient arrived at the hospital. In more detail, as soon as the patient arrived at the hospital, the medical team handled the case, and after performing thorough examinations on the patient, it turned out one of the main arteries feeding the patient"s brain was blocked, leading to her having a severe stroke. The medical team stated that the severe stroke led to speaking difficulties, in addition to extreme weakness in the right side of the patient"s body, resulting in weakness (drooping) in the face. This led to extreme difficulties in the patient"s movement. In a comment about this case, Dr. Abdulrahman Ibn Saad Aldakkan, neurosurgery, interventional neuroradiology, and brain catheterization consultant in Dallah Hospital AlNakheel, said, "Dallah Hospital AlNakheel has succeeded in performing a clot removal procedure on a woman in her seventies, and in record time since symptoms presented. She received the necessary medical treatment, which was by administering thrombolytic drugs, in addition to brain catheterization and removing the clot by placing a temporary stent. The patient then regained her ability to speak and the ability to move as well in the affected right side of her body," noting that this was the first in Dallah Hospital Alnakheel, in particular. Dr. Aldakkan has stressed that Dallah Hospital Alnakheel is completely qualified for such precise procedures due to the hospital"s capabilities, modern medical equipment, in addition to high-caliber personnel, which allows it to treat severe neurological cases and handle preventative procedures for all stroke types.
