Abstract
Postoperative cerebral infarction is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. In this study, we describe a case of postoperative (Mitral valve plasty with MAZE procedure) cerebral infarction and myocardial depression caused by extensive vasospasm of Common Carotid Artery (CCA), Vertebral Artery (VA) and coronary artery. The 59-year-old male patient was treated with Intraarterial isosorbide dinitrate injection. After treatment, there are no recurrences of cerebral or myocardial infarction. But he is attending the outpatient clinic because of the sequelae of Lt. sided hemiplegia.
