Abstract

This case presentation describes the use of emergent neurointerventional procedures to revascularize a patient who developed a symptomatic stroke during coronary artery angiography. Rapid identification of a neurologic deficit in the coronary angiography suite and notification of a skilled neurointerventionalist permit for early revascularization and improved patient outcomes.
