Cathet Cardiovasc Diagn. 1997 Feb;40(2):202-6. doi: 10.1002/(sici)1097-0304(199702)40:2<202::aid-ccd21>3.0.co;2-r.

Abstract

We describe a patient who underwent stenting of both internal carotid arteries and two coronary arteries. Two combined carotid and coronary procedures were done 4 wk apart to revascularize the patient. The first procedure was complicated by a minor stroke with good recovery. At 6 mo of follow-up, he is asymptomatic and without angiographic restenosis.
