Abstract:
Dual therapy of oral antiplatelet agents has significantly decreased the rate of acute or subacute instent thrombosis after coronary artery stenting. We report a case of subacute in-stent thrombosis after staged carotid artery stenting, small-size balloon angioplasty and stent placement at 1-week interval, for a patient with high-grade carotid stenosis and high risks of hyperperfusion syndrome postrevascularization.
