Abstract

We report the case of an extended pseudo-subarachnoid hemorrhage (PSAH) related to contrast intracerebral diffusion from blood-brain barrier breakdown on periprocedural percutaneous coronary intervention right corticofrontal ischemic stroke. PSAH is a rare and complex phenomenon, and it is important to differentiate PSAH from subarachnoid hemorrhage to avoid inappropriate treatment with potentially severe consequences. ().
