A luminal infarction of the brainstem is also a cerebral infarction, for which intravenous alteplase or urokinase can be considered for thrombolytic therapy if the onset is within three and a half hours. If the time window for thrombolysis has passed, the patient can be given symptomatic treatment such as antiplatelet aggregation, anticoagulation, fibrin-lowering, as well as activating blood circulation and removing oxygen free radicals. For brainstem infarction, clinically, infarction of the cerebral bridge is common, and some patients have symptoms of medullary infarction and dysphagia. In this case, patients should be given indwelling gastric tube if necessary to avoid choking and coughing when eating, which may lead to the occurrence of pneumonia, and in serious cases, aspiration may easily occur. For patients with brainstem infarction who have more symptoms of peptic ulcers, they can also be given stress ulcer prevention treatment, such as intravenous or oral pantoprazole and other drugs.
