- Abstract
- "Background : Intra-arterial cerebral angiography, which is a prerequisite for carotid endarterectomy and angioplasty,
carries some risks but provides the best visualization of the cerebral vasculatures. We attempted to examine the inci-dence
of complications associated with cerebral angiography in patients with ischemic stroke. Methods : We retrospec-tively
reviewed the medical records of patients with ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) who underwent
the digital subtraction cerebral angiography. Four hundred nineteen procedures were performed between October 1994
and August 1999. The systemic, local, and neurologic complications were evaluated. The neurologic complications
were defined as occurrences of any new focal neurologic deficits or progressions of the preexisting neurologic deficits
during or within 24 hours after the procedure. Results : There were 5 systemic (1.2%), 17 local (4.1%), and 10 neuro-logic
(2.4%) complications. The neurologic complications were reversible within 7 days in 6 (1.4%) and were persistent
after 7 days in 4 (1.0%). Six out of 10 patients with neurologic complications had previous stroke or TIA. The angio-graphic
studies revealed the stenosis or obstruction of the relevant arteries in 7 patients. Conclusions : Cerebral angiog-raphy
in patients with ischemic stroke was associated with 1.4 % reversible and 1.0% persistent neurologic complica-tions,
all of which developed after the angiographic procedure. The history of previous stroke or TIA and the presence
of severe stenosis or occlusion of the symptomatic arteries may carry a high risk of neurologic complications.
