Abstract
Hyperdense middle cerebral artery sign on non-contrast CT scan has been recognized as a marker of thrombus in the middle cerebral artery. It is associated with a subsequent large cerebral infarction and poor outcome despite treatment. This case illustrates the sign and also its grave consequences. Key words: Infarction, middle cerebral artery, malignant middle artery syndrome, stroke
