Abstract
A 61-year-old man underwent a left cervical internal carotid artery stenting following a recent ischemic stroke. Postoperative angiography was satisfactory and did not reveal any in-stent filling defect (figure 1A). Optical coherence tomography (OCT) probe was used to visualize the endoluminal area following stenting. OCT confirmed optimum placement of the stent and reveled a small plaque protrusion from the stent struts following deployment (figure 1B).
