The aneurysms were seen exclusively in the posterior circulation. With regard to vasospasm treatment, 80% had treatment with intra‐arterial verapamil and 40% underwent mechanical angioplasty. We did not perform balloon angioplasty in any case due to concern for rupture of the weakened compromised vessel walls.

Rescue strategies options, including balloon angioplasty alone, rescue stenting (RS) alone, or stent with balloon angioplasty, have shown promise in observational studies and meta‐analyses [3, 4]. The primary efficacy outcome was the shift in the degree of disability, as measured by the modified Rankin Scale (mRS), at 90 days.

Due to the rarity of iatrogenic CeAD, existing literature on management and outcomes is limited. Of the 32 patients, 9(28.1%) had dissection with diagnostic angiograms, 6(18.8%) endovascular thrombectomy, 15(46.9%) aneurysm treatment, and 2(6.3%) angioplasty with or without stenting.

There was a good outcome. We believe this represents a form of “toxicomythology” given the millions of doses of beta -blockers administered in the past to patients with hyperadrenergic states, and a paucity of evidence of adverse outcomes (12).
