What Causes A Stroke After A Testicular Cancer Surgery?

Hello Sir , I had a testicular cancer and undergone surgery of left side testicle . After completion of 1st cycle of BEP chemo , I had a stroke and stenting was done for one artery. So the rest of the treatment was postponed. Now I am under surveillance by my doctor and need to take routine check up with blood test in every 3 months. So my question if the heart problem was directly related to BEP chemo.
