摘要
Stroke is an exceptionally rare complication of electroconvulsive therapy since modem anesthesia and appropriate medical screening were instituted in the 1950s. Postictal focal neurological deficits mimicking stroke are common, but the advent of acute stroke therapies has made the differentiation of these from true cerebrovascular events critical. We present the first case report of ischemic stroke after electroconvulsive therapy with radiographic confirmation.
