Genetic Imbalance in Patients with Cervical Artery Dissection.
CONCLUSION: The findings suggest that rare genetic imbalance affecting cardiovascular system development may contribute to the risk of CeAD. Validation of these findings in independent study populations is warranted. PMID: 28367076 [PubMed - in process]

CT versus MR Techniques in the Detection of Cervical Artery Dissection
CONCLUSIONSCT/CTA is a reliable and better available alternative to MRI/MRA for diagnosis of sCAD. CT/CTA should be used to complement MRI/MRA in cases where MRI/MRA suggests occlusion.

Cervical artery dissection related to chiropractic manipulation: One institution's experience.
CONCLUSION: In this case series, 12 patients with newly diagnosed cervical artery dissection(s) had recent chiropractic neck manipulation. Patients who are considering chiropractic cervical manipulation should be informed of the potential risk and be advised to seek immediate medical attention should they develop symptoms.

Spontaneous cervical artery dissection is accompanied by a hypercoagulable state and simultaneous inflammatory condition
ConclusionWe found evidence for a hypercoagulable state in patients with sCAD as indicated by a shortened aPTT, which was associated with a trend to an increased leucocyte count at the same time. Our findings first strengthen the hypothesis that inflammation critically impacts on the occurrence of sCAD, and second linked this condition with a marked affection of the coagulation system.

Imaging of Spontaneous and Traumatic Cervical Artery Dissection
ConclusionNeuroradiologists should be aware that intimal flaps and multivessel dissections are more common after a traumatic etiology. In addition, it seems important to conduct a  CTA in a trauma setting, even if no cervical spine fracture is detected.

University education and cervical artery dissection
ConclusionWe observed a higher rate of university education in patients with CeAD compared with non-CeAD patients in our study population. University education was associated with favorable outcome in CeAD-patients. The mechanism behind this association remains unclear.

Natural History of Cervical Artery Fibromuscular Dysplasia and Associated Neurovascular Events
Conclusions: No new cervical artery FMD or aneurysm was observed on subsequent imaging. New carotid dissection was uncommon over a mean follow-up period of 35.3 ± 25.3 months and was the only non-atherosclerotic vascular event observed after FMD diagnosis.Cerebrovasc Dis 2018;46:33 –39

Cervical arterial dissection: clinical characteristics in a neurology service in São Paulo, Brazil
Conclusion: The presence of atherosclerotic disease is considered rare in patients with cervical arterial dissection; however, our study found a high frequency of hypertension, smoking and dyslipidemia. The choice of antithrombotic remains controversial and will depend on the judgment of the medical professional; the clinical results with anticoagulation or antiaggregation were similar but there was more recanalization in the group treated with anticoagulation; its course was favorable in both situations. The recurrence of cervical arterial dissection and stroke is considered a rare event and its course is favorable.RESUMO...

Vertebral Artery Dissection Following Cervical Spine Injury as a Diagnostic Challenge. Case Study.
We present the case of a spinal cord-injured patient with neurological sequelae and delayed posterior circu-la-tion stroke caused by bilateral vertebral artery dissection. The signs of cerebellar and occipital lobe ischemia were masked by manifestations of spinal cord injury. The patient was unconscious and in a serious condition, but, despite no proper stroke treatment, only residual dysarthria and upper limb ataxia were seen after reha-bilitation. Any clinical suspicion based on the combination of head or neck trauma with atypical or evolving neuro-logical symptoms should be verified for the possibility of a vertebral ar...

Internal carotid and vertebral artery dissections - a comparison of clinical, radiological and prognostic characteristics.
CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: In a series of patients with CeAD, we observed significant differences between VAD and ICAD in terms of clinical symptoms and radiological features. PMID: 33047785 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Antiplatelet vs. Anticoagulation in Cervical Artery Dissection: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
Conclusions: Compared with the antiplatelet group, the anticoagulation group has a lower risk of ischemic stroke without increasing bleeding risk when treating CAD. Anticoagulation seems to be superior over the antiplatelet in treating CAD but needs to be further tested by specifying several issues, such as location, initial symptom types, and treatment protocols.

E-190 Trends in admissions for intracranial dissections in the United States
ConclusionThe prevalence of uIADs among hospitalized patients is scarce, and only 2% of craniocervical dissection-related AIS is due to uIAD. Compared to IAs, patients were more likely younger and male, and uIAD more commonly led to acute ischemic stroke and motor deficits. The trend in age remained stable across the four years analyzed, while the proportion of females increased. There was no trend in the proportion of races among uIADs, however.Disclosures W.

A systematic review and meta-analysis of carotid artery stenting for the treatment of cervical carotid artery dissection
CONCLUSION: Both primary stenting and stenting of spontaneous CAD yielded unfavorable results regarding stent thrombosis and stroke rates. Conversely, stenting following FMT displayed acceptable mortality and complication rates corroborating the use of stenting in the setting of CAD as a second line treatment. Due to the low quality of the included studies, definite conclusions cannot be drawn necessitating further research.PMID:35961627 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejvs.2022.07.048
