Vertebral Artery Dissection in a Woman Due to Golf: An Under Recognized Etiology
Conclusion: This patient is the first woman in the literature to suffer from VAD as a result of playing golf. The twisting motion of the head and neck in a golf swing may be a risk factor for dissection and subsequent development of stroke. As a result of increased female participation in golf, we expect to see increased incidence of women presenting with “golfer’s stroke” in coming years.

Clinical Features of Patients With Cervical Artery Dissection and Fibromuscular Dysplasia
A retrospective review of the multicenter IPSYS CeAD (Italian project on stroke in young adults cervical artery dissection) study was performed from January 2000 to June 2019.

Varicella-Zoster Vasculopathy Causing Carotid Artery Dissection
This case raises the potential association between cervical arterial dissection and VZV vasculopathy. We advise angiographic imaging of neck vessels when VZV vasculopathy is suspected.

Aortic dissection diagnosed on stroke computed tomography protocol: a case report
ConclusionsWhen acute stroke is suspected due to neurological deficits, plain head CT is the first choice for imaging diagnosis. The addition of cervical CT angiography can reliably exclude stroke due to aortic dissection. CTP can identify ischemic penumbra, which cannot be diagnosed by plain head CT or diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging. These combined stroke CT protocols helped us avoid missing an aortic dissection.

Massive Brainstem and Cerebellum Infarction Due to Traumatic Extracranial Vertebral Artery Dissection in a Motor Traffic Accident: An Autopsy Case Report
Traumatic unilateral vertebral artery (VA) injury can cause focal thrombosis and may block the basilar artery which can further lead to ischemic stroke and massive cerebral infarction and subarachnoid hemorrhage and even rapid death. Here, we present an autopsy case with a traumatic extracranial VA dissection in a motor traffic accident, and the identification of cause of death underwent 2 autopsies. A 62-year-old male pedestrian collided with the right rearview mirror of a car and fell down to the ground. He complained pains in the head and neck. Head computed tomography (CT) showed a right linear temporal bone fracture a...

Isolated Cervical Pain Revealing a Common Carotid Artery Dissection in a Child Following a Minor Trauma: A First Pediatric Case Report and a Review of the Literature
Conclusion: The diagnosis of cervical artery dissections remains a challenge because of its variable clinical presentation. It should be suspected in the context of neck trauma and treatment should be initiated rapidly to reduce the risk of ischemic stroke.

Fusion for subaxial bow hunter's syndrome results in remote osseous remodeling of the hyperostotic growth responsible for vertebral artery compression
CONCLUSION: This case represents the first publication in the literature of DISH as a causative etiology of BHS and of angiographic data demonstrating resolution of a compressive osseous pathology without direct decompression in BHS.PMID:33880209 | PMC:PMC8053469 | DOI:10.25259/SNI_762_2020
