Abstract
Sudden cardiac arrest is known to be a rare but devastating complication after carotid artery stenting (CAS). However, it is not well known about who is at risk of such condition and especially whether performing CAS is safe in those who experienced recent heart diseases such as acute myocardial infarction. Here we report a patient who experienced sudden cardiac arrest after CAS which was done during the acute period of myocardial infarction.
