description This report describes a patient who developed intraprocedural vascular stasis immediately following elective endovascular coil emboliation. Urgent antiplatelet treatment with the GpIIb/IIIa agent tirofiban was used. It was infused intra-arterially during the procedure, followed by a fixed rate intravenous continuous infusion, and successfully restored normal circulation. There were no reports of further bleeding or haemodynamic compromise during the hospital stay. The patient’s condition returned to baseline and he was discharged the following day with no neurological deficits.
