A blood clot in the brain can cause a TIA, or transient ischemic attack, which causes a non-permanent loss of blood supply and oxygen to an area of the brain. Blood clots in the brain also cause stroke. If not corrected quickly, permanent brain damage will result. Clot "busters" are used to break up the clot and restore blood flow. If you suspect a stroke or TIA it is best to get to an ER.

Therefore, a pulmonary embolism cannot directly lead to a clot in the brain.
