AB Summary: Occlusion of an internal carotid artery stent was identified immediately post placement in a patient who had restenosis after prior angioplasty. An IV dose of abciximab was administered, and serial angiograms were performed. This resulted in partial resolution of the thrombus at 10 minutes and complete resolution at 20 minutes.
