Endovascular thrombectomy for tandem acute ischemic stroke associated with cervical artery dissection: a systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionsCurrent data suggest that endovascular thrombectomy may be an option in patients with acute ischemic stroke due to cervical artery dissection. This requires further confirmation in higher quality prospective studies.

The Dilator-Dotter Technique: A Modified Method of Rapid Internal Carotid Artery Revascularization in Acute Ischemic Stroke INTERVENTIONAL
CONCLUSIONS: The dilator-Dotter technique may be a safe and effective modification of the traditional Dotter technique in allowing rapid ICA recanalization in cases of acute ischemic stroke due to tandem occlusions.

E-104 Young man with osteogenesis imperfecta presenting with acute stroke from carotid dissection and subsequent contralateral pseudoaneurysm
ConclusionOsteogenesis imperfecta (OI) has been associated with numerous cerebrovascular conditions including carotid cavernous fistulas, cerebral aneurysms, and carotid dissections with attendant risk of stroke. While our patient was able to be successfully treated for his initial carotid dissection in the acute phase, he was at higher risk for stroke, whereas his subsequent carotid dissection was identified pre-symptomatically and treated electively. Judicious evaluation of patients with OI for cervical carotid dissections is warranted for early identification and treatment.Disclosures A. Mbaluka: None. R. Sanchez-Mejia:...

Vertebral Artery Dissection in Rheumatoid Arthritis with Cervical Spine Disease
A 59-year-old woman with long-standing active rheumatoid arthritis presented with posterior circulation ischemic stroke after vertebral dissection. She had severe multilevel degenerative changes of her cervical spine. She did not have classic stroke risk factors nor evidence of atherosclerotic disease or other systemic diseases. The most likely mechanism appears to be injury of the artery wall by an osteophyte, causing dissection that resulted in thrombosis and subsequent embolic strokes.

Neck manipulation may be associated with stroke
Manipulating the neck has been associated with cervical dissection, a type of arterial tear that can lead to stroke. Although a direct cause-and-effect link has not been established between neck manipulation and the risk of stroke, healthcare providers should inform patients of the association before they undergo neck manipulation.

Spontaneous cervical internal carotid artery vasospasm: Case report and literature review
We report a case of recurrent TIA caused by alternating cervical ICA spasms. We also performed a MEDLINE search of previous publications in English from 1950 to August 2013. The search was performed with both text word searching and the appropriate MeSH headings of "carotid vasospasm" and "stroke," "cerebrovascular accident," "TIA," or "brain attack." The bibliographies of each of the retrieved articles with similar cases were all reviewed and relevant citations in these listings were evaluated for inclusion in the review.

Familial occurrence and heritable connective tissue disorders in cervical artery dissection
Conclusions: In this largest series of patients with CeAD to date, family history of symptomatic CeAD was rare and inherited connective tissue disorders seemed exceptional. This finding supports the notion that CeAD is a multifactorial disease in the vast majority of cases.

Stroke in a Young Swimmer
Conclusions: Important differential diagnoses of cervicocephalic arterial dissection include other vascular or neurological causes of head and neck pain and/or local neurological syndromes and other causes of brain ischemia such as cardiac emboli, atherosclerosis, and vasculopathy of brain vessels. It is important that sports medicine practitioners pay attention to this less-diagnosed cause of stroke in young athletes.,Introduction: Arterial dissections are important causes of stroke in the young population. Dissection has been reported in association with some sports. It seems that this report is among the first ones of t...

Cervical artery dissection in patients >=60 years: Often painless, few mechanical triggers
Conclusion: In our study population of patients diagnosed with CeAD, 1 in 14 was aged ≥60 years. In these patients, pain and mechanical triggers might be missing, rendering the diagnosis more challenging and increasing the risk of missed CeAD diagnosis in older patients.

Recanalization after Extracranial Dissection: Effect of Antiplatelet Compared with Anticoagulant Therapy
Cervical arterial dissection is a leading cause of stroke in young patients, yet optimal management remains controversial. Existing studies focusing on recurrent stroke were underpowered to demonstrate differences between antithrombotic strategies. Vessel recanalization is a more prevalent outcome and is potentially clinically important. We aimed to assess recanalization rates with anticoagulation compared with antiplatelet therapy.

The potential dangers of neck manipulation & risk for dissection and devastating stroke: An illustrative case & review of the literature.
The potential dangers of neck manipulation & risk for dissection and devastating stroke: An illustrative case & review of the literature. Biomed Res Rev. 2018;2(1): Authors: Turner RC, Lucke-Wold BP, Boo S, Rosen CL, Sedney CL Abstract Chiropractic cervical manipulation is a common practice utilized around the world. Most patients are never cleared medically for manipulation, which can be devastating for those few who are at increased risk for dissections. The high velocity thrust used in cervical manipulation can produce significant strain on carotid and vertebral vessels. Once a dissection h...

Postoperative Stroke after Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion in Patients with Carotid Artery Stenosis: A Statewide Database Analysis
Carotid artery injury and stroke secondary to prolonged retraction remains an extremely rare complication in anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF). However, multiple studies have demonstrated that carotid artery retraction during the surgical approach may alter the normal blood flow, leading to a significant reduction in the cross-sectional area of the vessel. Others have suggested that dislodgment of atherosclerotic plaques following manipulation of the carotid artery can be a potential risk for intracranial embolus and stroke.
