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.

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

Cerebral artery dissection secondary to antiphospholipid syndrome: A report of two cases and a literature review.
CONCLUSIONS: The current report described two rare cases of ischemic stroke caused by CAD secondary to APS, along with a review of the literature; the patients displayed characteristic clinical manifestations, implying specific mechanisms for cerebral artery disorders secondary to APS.

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.

Collateral Score and Neurologic Worsening in Patients with Carotid Dissection (P1.002)
CONCLUSIONS: We did not find a significant association between the CS and neurologic worsening or recurrent stroke in patients with carotid dissection. Limitations include small sample size and retrospective nature.Disclosure: Dr. Jia has nothing to disclose. Dr. Cai has nothing to disclose. Dr. Rahbar has nothing to disclose.

Prognosis of spontaneous cervical artery dissection and transcranial Doppler findings associated with clinical outcomes
Conclusions The outcome of sCAD depends on its radiological subtype. In the occlusive subtype, which is associated with the worst outcome, TCD flow analysis may predict acute stroke progression and long-term outcome. Key Points • Outcomes in cervical artery dissection may be determined by radiological subtypes. • The aneurysm and stenotic groups had favourable outcomes. • The occlusive group had less favourable functional outcomes. ...

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.

Microsurgical embolectomy with superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery bypass for acute internal carotid artery dissection: A technical case report.
Conclusion: Surgical embolectomy with or without bypass can safely treat acute ischemic stroke due to an ICA dissection that cannot be distinguished between a dissecting occlusion and an embolic occlusion. Thus, it may be considered as an alternative option for patients in whom mechanical thrombectomy has failed or for those who are ineligible for mechanical thrombectomy. PMID: 32874726 [PubMed]
