Abstract

A 57-year-old woman with metastatic chondroblastic osteosarcoma developed sudden-onset right-sided weakness and aphasia. She was found to have an occluded left middle cerebral artery (M1 segment) and underwent endovascular stroke intervention with return to a normal neurological exam within 24 h. Histologic analysis of the embolus was consistent with chondroblastic osteosarcoma.
