E-093 Acute ischemic stroke from fibrocartilaginous embolism to the basilar artery
DiscussionIn review of the CTA of the neck, there is a prominent lateral disc protrusion at C5-C6 with a filling defect in the adjacent medial VA. An MRI c-spine confirmed a lateral disc protrusion at this level. In combination with a lateral disc osteophyte, this may have led to medial disruption of the VA and subsequent herniation of fibrocartilage into the left VA leading to the patient’s embolism. A concordant fine linear filling defect was seen at C5-C6 on cervical angiography. Only one case of FCE resulting in cerebral ischemia exists in the literature. In that case, a 17-year-old female developed a right cereb...

036 A rare subtype of a rare type of stroke - sulcal artery syndrome
A 78 year old man was woken from sleep by a sudden excruciating neck pain. The pain was accompa- nied by left arm and leg weakness and paraesthesia which progressed to maximum intensity over hours. His past medical history was significant for ischaemic heart disease and type 2 diabetes. On examination there was an incomplete Brown-Sequard syndrome localising to the left hemicord. MRI of the cervical spine showed intramedullary T2 hyperintensity and restricted diffusion in the left hemicord at C2-C3 level. CT angiogram of the vertebral arteries excluded dissection. We diagnosed acute spinal cord infarction due to a sulcal a...
