Abstract
Abstract INTRODUCTION: This is a case of transient visual loss following trans-femoral coronary angiography in a 44 year- old man, which lasted for 2 days. CASE REPORT: Ophthalmologic, neurological and radiological studies using physical exam and brain MRI showed no pathological finding. CONCLUSION: Visual loss resolved completely without any sequel in 2 days. The leakage of contrast agent into occipital area of the brain could possibly be the cause.
