Aspirin and clopidogrel are typically synergistic. We present a case of clopidogrel resistance due to genetic polymorphism resulting in acute stent thrombosis during elective stent-assisted coiling, with novel use of prasugrel as an alternative platelet inhibitor in the neurovascular setting.}, issn = {1759-8478}, URL = {https://jnis.bmj.com/content/3/4/358}, eprint = {https://jnis.bmj.com/content/3/4/358.full.pdf}, journal = {Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery} }
