Delayed Cerebral Hyperperfusion Syndrome Three Weeks after Carotid Artery Stenting Presenting as Status Epilepticus
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) is increasingly recognized as an uncommon, but serious, complication subsequent to carotid artery stenting (CAS) and carotid endarterectomy (CEA). The onset of CHS generally occurs within two weeks of CEA and CAS, and a delay in the onset of CHS of over one week after CAS is quite rare. We describe a patient who developed CHS three weeks after CAS with status epilepticus.
