Selective infusion of urokinase into occluded coronary bypass vein grafts is effective in restoring patency. We report the occurrence of intracerebral hemorrhage complicating an intra-graft urokinase infusion protocol. The patient had known cerebral vascular structural pathology without recent clinical complications. Caution with the use of thrombolysis in this setting is suggested.
