First angiogram of right internal carotid artery in oblique view demonstrates a high-grade stenosis with calcified and non-calcified parts (a). Digital subtraction angiography after stent placement (7/50 mm) and balloon dilatation in proximal right internal carotid artery and distal right common carotid artery (b). Recanalization and mechanical thrombectomy maneuver in the right middle cerebral artery (c). Successful reperfusion in M1 to M2 branches of right middle cerebral artery (d). Lateral angiogram of right internal carotid artery shows a residual rarefication of the terminal branches of the right middle cerebral artery in the parieto-occipital region (e). Meanwhile acute occlusion of the A1 segment of right anterior cerebral artery has occurred (f). Final angiogram of the right internal carotid artery at the end of intervention with imaged reperfused M1 and A1 segments and all major vessel branches (g).
