Compressive Cervical Radiculopathy due to Vertebral Artery Dissection
Rarely, not stroke but peripheral weakness can result from cervical artery dissection. In these cases, a mural hematoma compressing the ipsilateral C5 and/or C6 root can be demonstrated.

Spontaneous Bilateral Cervical Internal Carotid and Vertebral Artery Dissection in a Japanese Patient without Collagen Vascular Disease with Special Reference to Single-Nucleotide Polymorphisms
Spontaneous cervical artery dissection (sCAD) is a major cause of ischemic stroke in young adults. Frequently, sCAD involves multiple neck arteries, accounting for 13%-28% of the total sCAD cases. However, little is known about factors related to multiple sCAD. In this case, a 52-year-old man was admitted due to headache without aura. There was a personal history of migraine with aura and a family history of similar symptoms. The patient's younger brother had a left vertebral artery (VA) dissecting aneurysm and underwent endovascular occlusion of his parent artery at the age of 48.

Clinical Presentation, Magnetic Resonance Angiography, Ultrasound Findings, and Stroke Patterns in Patients with Vertebral Artery Dissection
Background/Aims: Vertebral artery dissection (VAD) is an important cause of ischemic stroke. In this observational study, clinical data, magnetic resonance (MR) and ultrasound (US) imaging findings and ischemic patterns were analyzed.Methods: Forty-seven patients with a diagnosis of VAD underwent clinical examination, US, MR of the brain and neck and MR angiography (MRA) of the cervical arteries. Vascular abnormalities and ischemic brain lesions were noted. Data were evaluated separately and compared for spontaneous and traumatic VAD subgroups.Results: The most common overall clinical symptom was vertigo followed by neck p...

Does case misclassification threaten the validity of studies investigating the relationship between neck manipulation and vertebral artery dissection stroke? Yes
ConclusionThere are several methodological challenges to understanding the association between neck manipulation and vertebral artery dissection. Addressing these issues is critical because even a modest association between neck manipulation and cervical artery dissection could translate into a significant number of avoidable dissections given the widespread use of neck manipulation by providers from various backgrounds. We believe that valid case classification, accurate measurement of manipulative procedures, and addressing reverse causation bias should be top priorities for future research.

Does case misclassification threaten the validity of studies investigating the relationship between neck manipulation and vertebral artery dissection stroke? No
The purported relationship between cervical manipulative therapy (CMT) and stroke related to vertebral artery dissection (VAD) has been debated for several decades. A large number of publications, from case re...

Does case misclassification threaten the validity of studies investigating the relationship between neck manipulation and vertebral artery dissection stroke? Yes
For patients and health care providers who are considering spinal manipulative therapy of the neck, it is crucial to establish if it is a trigger for cervical artery dissection and/or stroke, and if it is, the...

Cervical Carotid Pseudo-Occlusions and False Dissections Brief Report
Background and Purpose—Pseudo-occlusion (PO) of the cervical internal carotid artery (ICA) refers to an isolated occlusion of the intracranial ICA that appears as an extracranial ICA occlusion on computed tomography angiography (CTA) or digital subtraction angiography because of blockage of distal contrast penetration by a stagnant column of unopacified blood. We aim to better characterize this poorly recognized entity.Methods—Retrospective review of an endovascular database (2010–2015; n=898). Only patients with isolated intracranial ICA occlusions as confirmed by angiographic exploration were included. CTA and digi...

Endovascular management of iatrogenic dissection into the petrous segment of the internal carotid artery during mechanical thrombectomy for acute stroke
Publication date: Available online 10 December 2019Source: Journal of Clinical NeuroscienceAuthor(s): David I. Bass, Melanie Walker, Louis J. Kim, Michael R. LevittAbstractIatrogenic dissection of the internal carotid artery is a well-known complication that can occur during mechanical thrombectomy for acute stroke. The vast majority of these injuries are limited to the cervical segment, and only in exceptional circumstances do they require surgical intervention. In the present case, extension of the lesion into the petrous segment of the carotid artery resulted in an acute neurologic decline necessitating emergent endovas...

Increased Risk of Stroke Among Young Adults With Serious Traumatic Brain Injury
Conclusions: These findings add to a growing body of work demonstrating that the acute and postacute stages of TBI play an accelerative role in AIS risk, particularly among younger patients, cervical artery dissection, and serious TBI.

Reversible Cerebral Vasoconstriction Syndrome and Dissection in the Setting of COVID-19 Infection
The current COVID-19 pandemic has recently brought to attention the myriad of neuro- logic sequelae associated with Coronavirus infection including the predilection for stroke, particularly in young patients. Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) is a well-described clinical syndrome leading to vasoconstriction in the intracra- nial vessels, and has been associated with convexity subarachnoid hemorrhage and oc- casionally cervical artery dissection. It is usually reported in the context of a trigger such as medications, recreational drugs, or the postpartum state; however, it has not been described in COVID-19 infection.
