Abstract |
A 35-year-old female without evidence of atherosclerotic vascular disease underwent percutaneous femoral cerebral angiography. Perifoveal retinal infarction by exogenous arteriolar emboli produced a permanent absolute pericentral scotoma. Strict adherence to meticulous angiographic technique may prevent such an angiographic complication. |
