Fig. 2. Local thrombosis controlled by tirofiban. This 56-year-old female patient presented with a subarachnoidal hemorrhage and focal deficits (WFNS 3). Multiple aneurysms were found on diagnostic angiography; however, the pericallosal aneurysm was determined to be the symptomatic one. During the interventional procedure, a local thrombus was detected in the left pericallosal artery (arrow, A). Tirofiban was administered and patency of the vessel was restored (B). Outcome of the patient was excellent; there were no focal or generalized deficits (mRS 0).
