Hyperperfusion syndrome with hemorrhage after angioplasty for middle cerebral artery stenosis.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hyperperfusion syndrome is a well-documented complication of carotid endarterectomy, as well as internal carotid artery angioplasty and stent placement. We report a similar complication after distal intracranial (middle cerebral artery [MCA] M2 segment) angioplasty. To our knowledge, this is the first report of hyperperfusion syndrome after intracranial angioplasty of a distal MCA branch.

This chapter deals with this uncommon but not exceptional complication of endovascular treatment of the arteries that supply the brain. We u...
