Imaging analysis of ischemic strokes due to blunt cerebrovascular injury
CONCLUSION
With universal screening, CTA evidence of BCVI is common among blunt trauma patients. Although acute stroke is also relatively common in this population, two thirds of strokes are already evident on admission. One third of BCVI-related strokes occur after admission and often relatively early, necessitating rapid commencement of preventative treatment. Further studies are required to demonstrate the value of antithrombotic administration in preventing stroke in BCVI patients.
LEVEL OF EVIDENCE
Prognostic and Epidemiologic; Level IV.
