As a risk factor for vascular diseases and inflammatory diseases, fibrinogen has received more and more attention. Hyperfibrinogenemia is associated with the occurrence, development, and poor outcome of artery-venous ischemic stroke (acute ischemic stroke, transient ischemic attack and cerebral venous thrombosis). Therefore, fibrinogen may be a potential therapeutic target for the prevention and management of artery-venous ischemic stroke. However, there has been controversy regarding the defibrinogen therapy in artery-venous ischemic stroke. Therefore, this paper introduces the efficacy and safety of defibrinogen therapy alone, combined with antiplatelet or combined with anticoagulant in prevention and management of artery-venous ischemic stroke in detail, in order to re-understand the role of defibrinogen therapy in the prevention and management of artery-venous ischemic stroke.
