ABSTRACT

We describe the case of a middle-aged man with nonhemorrhagic stroke occurred during thrombolysis for acute myocardial infarction. The ischemic etiology of stroke was demonstrated by cerebral computed tomography scan. Transthoracic echocardiogram excluded left ventricular thrombosis. Transesophageal echocardiogram displayed complicated atheromas of the aortic arch. The reported case emphasizes that aortic atheromas may be the source of emboli during thrombolytic therapy.
