N2 - Acute thrombotic occlusions of the large vessels, such as internal carotid artery, arms and legs arteries, and intracranial vessels, frequently require multiple techniques such as selective thrombolysis, manual aspiration, and stent retrievers for mechanical thrombectomy with combination of the mentioned techniques. Because of the massive thrombotic burden associated with these conditions, the response to systemic intravenous thrombolysis is poor. We present a case of a successful massive thrombi aspiration in a single attempt using an 8Fr guide catheter with aspiration syringe, subsequent ipsilateral middle cerebral artery mechanical thrombectomy, and axillary artery clot disruption attempt in a patient with acute ischemic stroke, right arm critical ischemia, and persistent atrial fibrillation.
