Abstract:
:Cerebral amyloid angiography can cause ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attacks (TIA's), as illustrated by this case report and literature review. It is possible that the use of anticoagulant or platelet-antiaggregant drugs in elderly patients with TIA's but no angiographic abnormalities may increase the risk of hemorrhage from unsuspected amyloid angiopathy.
