Simultaneous revascularization of the occluded internal carotid artery using the Solitaire as a workhorse wire during acute ischemic stroke intervention.
CONCLUSION: As the management paradigms of tandem occlusions continue to evolve, this technique may improve outcomes by expediting endovascular intervention. Using the stent retriever wire provides a method of expediting the management of the proximal lesion after addressing the more distal intracranial occlusion first.

Antithrombotic therapy in the postacute phase of cervical artery dissection: the Italian Project on Stroke in Young Adults Cervical Artery Dissection
Conclusions Discontinuation of antithrombotic therapy in the postacute phase of CeAD does not appear to increase the risk of brain ischaemia during follow-up.

E-055 Internal carotid artery reconstruction with flow diverting stents in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke: technical considerations and medical management
ConclusionsFDS appear to be a safe and effective tool for reconstruction of a symptomatic dissection in tortuous cervical ICAs. Their flexibility allows conformation to complex anatomies and they can be traversed multiple times by aspiration catheters/stentrievers. We found excellent patency at follow up. The unique challenges posed by utilization of high-profile stents in acute stroke require appropriate technical execution and medical management.Disclosures E. Orru: None. F. Bounni: None. M.

Craniovertebral Junction Anomalies: An Overlooked Cause of & #39;Posterior Circulation Stroke & #39;
Conclusions: CVJ anomalies can present as posterior circulation infarct. One must evaluate all patients with posterior circulation stroke, especially young patients, for possible CVJ anomalies. Dynamic lateral cervical spine X-ray is an important tool to diagnose AAD. CVJ anomalies represent a treatable cause of VAD.

Unusual complication of vertebral arterial dissection
Discussion This patient had subacute onset of cervical cord infarction. The history and MRI findings were in keeping with cervical dissection. The vertebral artery is most vulnerable as it travels in the vertebral foramen and makes a curvature at C1–2 and dissection at this point usually causing cerebellar infarction and lateral medullary syndrome. A spinal cord infarct may occur if the extra–cranial vertebral artery is involved. Intracranial vertebral arterial dissection has a poor prognosis for neurological recovery but are usually not fatal. Extracranial VAD may cause spinal cord infarction but respiratory f...

Acute neurology in the emergency department
A 66-year-old woman presented with sudden onset tearing interscapular pain 1 h after gentle neck exercises. Over the next 3 h, she developed flaccid left arm and leg paralysis and a left Horner's syndrome. Her initial CT scan revealed no evidence of cerebral ischaemia or aortic/carotid dissection but did reveal what was thought to be a calcified arteriovenous malformation in the right frontal lobe. Thrombolysis for a presumed acute stroke was considered but not initiated. By 5 h, the patient had lost light touch sensation and proprioception of her left side, and additionally she developed grade 3/5 right-sid...

Characteristics and Outcomes of Patients With Multiple Cervical Artery Dissection Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— In the largest published series of patients with CeAD, we highlighted significant differences between multiple and single artery involvement. Features suggestive of an underlying vasculopathy (fibromuscular dysplasia) and environmental triggers (recent infection, cervical manipulation, and a remote history of head or neck surgery) were preferentially associated with multiple CeAD.

Diagnosis of Spontaneous Cervical Artery Dissection May Be Associated with Increased Prevalence of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
Background: Receiving information that one has a dissected cervical artery, which can cause a stroke at any time, is obviously traumatic, but details about the psychiatric and psychosocial sequelae are not known. We investigated the prevalence of and risk factors for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in patients with spontaneous cervical artery dissection (CD) and the impact of PTSD on their psychosocial functioning.Methods: Patients admitted because of CD between 2006 and 2010 were retrospectively examined using a diagnostic PTSD measure (Posttraumatic Diagnostic Scale). Patients between 2011 and 2012 were examined pro...

Connective tissue anomalies in patients with spontaneous cervical artery dissection
Conclusions: Connective tissue abnormalities are frequent in patients with sCeAD. This reinforces the hypothesis that systemic aberrations of the connective tissue might be implicated in the pathogenesis of the disease.
