Serum Neurofilament Light Chain Levels Are Associated with Clinical Characteristics and Outcome in Patients with Cervical Artery Dissection
Conclusion: sNfL levels were increased in CeAD patients presenting with stroke, correlated with clinical severity and were influenced by the time point of blood sampling. The prognostic meaning of sNfL in CeAD deserves further testing.Cerebrovasc Dis 2015;40:222-227

E-094 Trends in endovascular treatment of cervical artery dissections: a nationwide analysis
ConclusionsDespite an increase in the overall use of endovascular therapy for the treatment of cervical artery dissection in patients with ischemic stroke or TIA, there was no significant association with early clinical outcomes. Future studies looking at long term outcomes including stroke-recurrence are warranted.Disclosures M. Bouslama: None. C. Zhang: None. H. Kamel: 1; C; PI for the NIH-funded ARCADIA trial (NINDS U01NS095869) which receives in-kind study drug from the BMS-Pfizer Alliance for Eliquis® and ancillary study support from Roche Diagnostics. 2; C; Deputy Editor for JAMA Neurology, steering committee mem...

Elevated peripheral leukocyte counts in acute cervical artery dissection
ConclusionsAcute CeAD was associated with particularly high WBC counts. Leukocytosis may reflect a pre‐existing inflammatory state, supporting the link between inflammation and CeAD.

Helsinki experience on nonvitamin K oral anticoagulants for treating cervical artery dissection
ConclusionsIn this small, consecutive single‐center patient sample treating ischemic stroke patients with CeAD with NOACs did not bring up safety concerns and resulted in similar, good outcomes compared to patients using VKAs. Clinical, radiological, and outcome data in few stroke patients with cervical arterial dissection using nonvitamin K oral anticoagulants had no safety or efficacy concerns, having a good recanalization rate and outcome.

Prognosis of carotid dissecting aneurysms: Results from CADISS and a systematic review
Conclusions: The results of CADISS provide evidence suggesting that DAs may have benign prognosis and therefore medical treatment should be considered.

Cervical Artery Dissection in Patients of African Ancestry
Conclusion: AA patients represent a smaller proportion of CeAD cases compared to young stroke cases at our center. AA patients suffering CeAD have higher prevalence of both vascular risk factors and frequency of the CeAD risk allele compared to EA patients. These findings suggest a complex interplay between traditional vascular risk factors and genetic predisposition underlying CeAD pathogenesis. Further prospective research is needed to clarify these associations and disparities.Cerebrovasc Dis 2018;46:218 –222

E-019 tcar
ConclusionsOur analysis of a single-center cohort demonstrates that TCAR is a safe and effective treatment for symptomatic carotid stenosis, with a low perioperative stroke risk. The present study’s findings concur with the combined adverse outcome rate of 3.5% reported in the ROADSTER trial.Disclosures A. Bajaj: None. S. Monje: None. C. Ayala: None. J. Poggi: None. E.

Acute carotid artery stenting in symptomatic high-grade cervical carotid artery stenosis
Abstract The safety and efficacy of emergency carotid artery stenting (CAS) for patients with acute ischemic stroke resulting from internal carotid artery stenosis are not established. In this retrospective study, we evaluated outcomes for CAS performed within 2 weeks of acute ischemic stroke for 16 patients treated between December 2009 and February 2014. Cases of internal carotid artery occlusion, internal carotid dissection, or intracranial major arterial trunk occlusion were excluded. Five patients were treated with CAS during the hyperacute phase (within 24 h of stroke onset), three in the advanced phase (w...

Epidemiology and cerebrovascular events related to cervical and intracranial arteries dissection: the experience of the city of Pisa
This study aims to evaluate the incidence, clinical features, and outcome of cerebrovascular events related to sCAD and spontaneous intracranial arteries dissections (sIAD) in the city of Pisa (Italy). We retrospectively analyzed consecutive patients admitted between December 1997 and June 2015 with a diagnosis of stroke, TIA, or Bernard-Horner syndrome due to acute cervical or intracranial artery dissection. Considering that our hospital collects presumptively all patients hospitalized with sCAD coming from the referral geographical area, data may provide a good approximation to real incidence of sCAD in our population. C...

E-049 Accuracy of non-invasive and invasive imaging in identifying ica occlusion: a comparative study in 65 patients
Conclusion Our result suggests that there is a lack of correlation between the imaging findings of carotid occlusion on imaging compared with catheter angiography of the ICA during the intervention in acute stroke treatment. Thus, endovascular catheterization of the ICA is often required for the exact characterization and localization of the carotid occlusion and to determine if a dissection is the underlying pathology in such cases.

Antiplatelets Versus Anticoagulation in Cervical Artery Dissection: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of 2064 Patients
ConclusionOur study did not show a considerable difference between the two groups, as all outcomes showed non-significant differences between them, except for primary ischaemic stroke (RCTs) and complete recanalization (observational studies), which showed a significant favour of AC over AP. Even though primary ischaemic stroke is an important outcome, several crucial points that could affect these results should be paid attention to. These include the incomplete adjustment for the confounding effect of AP –AC doses, frequencies, administration compliance, and others. We recommend more well-designed studies to assess if ...

Results of carotid artery stenting with transcervical access
Conclusions: CAS with the transcervical approach is a safe procedure with low incidence of stroke and complications. It can be used as an alternative to femoral access in patients with unfavorable aortoiliac or aortic arch anatomy.

Self-Expanding Stent Placement for Anterior Circulation Intracranial Artery Dissection Presenting With Ischemic Symptoms
BACKGROUND: The prognosis of ischemic anterior circulation intracranial dissection (AC-ICD) is poor and its optimal management is still controversial. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of a self-expanding stent for ischemic AC-ICD. METHODS: Eight patients (mean age, 36 years) underwent self-expanding stenting for ischemic AC-ICD. Imaging findings of ischemic AC-ICD, the reason for stenting, and the clinical and angiographic outcomes were retrospectively evaluated. RESULTS: AC-ICD involved intracranial internal carotid artery to middle cerebral artery (MCA) in 2, intracranial internal carotid artery alone in 3,...

Arterial tortuosity in patients with spontaneous cervical artery dissection
ConclusionCeAD patients exhibit increased arterial tortuosity. This might have potential implications for better understanding of the pathophysiology of the disease as well as clinical utility in evaluation, prognostication, and decision-making of affected individuals.
