摘要：

Background/Objective: Many atherothrombotic complications are associated with coronary angiography. Spinal cord embolism with high morbidity and mortality is one of these complications. Methods: Case report. Results: A 65-year-old woman was admitted to the hospital with acute myocardial infarction. Immediately after coronary angiography, she complained of paresthesia and paraparesis of her legs. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) detected hyperintensity at the level of the conus medullaris. Antiaggregant therapy and a physiotherapy program continued. After 2 months, clinical and MRI findings had improved. Conclusions: Invasive procedures such as coronary angiography can lead to serious atherothrombotic complications.
