Abstract:
The article describes a 45-year-old female patient with recurrent transient ischemic attacks and ischemic stroke due to spontaneous spasm of the middle cerebral artery, the anterior cerebral artery and distal part of the internal cerebral artery on the left, verified by MR angiography and CT angiography. It is assumed that the spasm caused damage to the vascular wall, an increase in its permeability, the development of edema, inflammation and subsequent fibrosis, therefore a complete restoration of the arterial lumen did not occur.
