Eligibility Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:
* Sudden focal neurological deficit attributable to a stroke
* Clearly defined time of onset, allowing initiation of intravenous treatment within 3 hours of symptoms onset and intra-arterial treatment within 6 hour of symptoms onset.
* Age greater than 18 years
Exclusion Criteria:
* Disability preceding stroke consistent with a modified Rankin scale score of 2-4
* Coma at onset
* Rapidly improving neurological deficit
* Seizure at onset
* Clinical presentation suggestive of a subarachnoid hemorrhage
* Previous history of intracranial hemorrhage
* Septic embolism
* Arterial puncture at a non compressible site within the previous 7 days
* Any traumatic brain injury within the previous 14 days
* Surgery of the central nervous system in the previous 3 months
* Gastrointestinal hemorrhage or urinary tract hemorrhage within the previous 14 days.
* Current therapy with intravenous or subcutaneous heparin to rise the clotting time
* Known hereditary or acquired hemorrhagic diathesis, baseline INR greater than 1.5, aPTT more than 1.5 times normal, or baseline platelet count less than 100,000 per cubic millimeter
* Baseline blood glucose concentrations below 2.75 mm/L (50 mg/dL).
* Known contrast sensitivity.
* Women of childbearing potential (unless pregnancy impossible) or known to be breastfeeding. Uncontrolled hypertension defined by a blood pressure greater or equal 185 mmHg systolic or diastolic greater or equal 110 mm Hg in 3 separate occasions at least 10 minutes apart or requiring continuous IV therapy.
* Prognosis very poor regardless of therapy; likely to be dead within months.
* Unlikely to be available for follow-up (eg, no fixed home address, visitor from overseas).
* Any other condition which local investigators feels would pose a significant hazard in terms of risk/benefit to the patient, or if therapies are impracticable.
COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHIC (CT) SCAN EXCLUSION CRITERIA
* Intracranial tumors except small meningioma
* Hemorrhage of any degree
* Acute infarction (since this may be an indicator that the time of onset is uncorrected)
