A US-trained Nigerian vascular interventional radiologist, Dr. Hammed Ninalowo and his team, have performed a pioneering stroke intervention in Nigeria.
“We had a 67-year-old male who had an acute stroke and lost sensation in his right hand and right limb. Our service was activated in the afternoon, and by the evening, the patient was transferred and had a CT scan showing a large blood clot within one of the vessels in the brain, called a middle cerebral artery.
“As you know, stroke can be a debilitating illness, which can significantly alter a patient’s quality of life after an event. Our service has worked tirelessly over the last five years since our move to Nigeria, into pushing the limits to make sure all of the cutting-edge treatments that are available in America and Western countries can be done here in Nigeria.
