“COVID-19 and cervical artery dissection- A causative association?”
COVID-19 is a pandemic disease which predominantly affects the respiratory system, however it also causes multi-organ dysfunction in a subset of patients. There is a growing evidence that it increases the propensity of strokes in younger patients. Besides producing a prothrombotic state, arterial dissection could be one of its many manifestations, increasing the risks of stroke. Herein, we report the first case of spontaneous bilateral vertebral artery dissection in a patient with COVID-19. 39-year female presented with spontaneous bilateral vertebral artery dissections without any instigating traumatic events and no histo...

Cervical Artery Dissection Caused by Electrical Cupping Therapy with High-Negative Pressure – Case Report
Cervical artery dissection is an important cause of stroke in the young. The etiology is still discussed controversial. The most obvious reason for a dissection of extracranial arteries is due to a trauma, eg. after car accidents or other high speed traumas such as high-velocity road traffic accidents. Besides these clear cases, chiropractic neck maneuvers represent potential reasons for vessel injuries. Case presentation: We here report a rare case of secondary cervical artery dissection after so-called cupping therapy and a preventive treatment with a direct oral anticoagulant.

Influenza-Like Illness is Associated with Increased Short-Term Risk of Cervical Artery Dissection
Non-traumatic Cervical Artery Dissection (CeAD) is a leading cause of ischemic stroke in the young. Influenza-like illnesses (ILI) trigger ischemic strokes. We hypothesized that influenza and ILI are associated with CeAD.

Cervical artery dissection: A common cause of stroke in young adults
Cervical artery dissection is a common cause of stroke in young adults and can lead to significant disability. Clinicians should be able to recognize the clinical presentation and diagnose this condition to prevent cerebral ischemia and its complications. Consider cervical artery dissection in a young adult with new-onset, unilateral head pain with or without neck pain with antecedent neck trauma, with or without neurologic deficits or risk factors for dissection. Early diagnosis can lead to better outcomes but the overall prognosis is good for young adults with cervical artery dissection.

Vertebral Artery Tortuosity and Morphometric Characteristics of Patients with Recurrent Cervical Artery Dissection
Cervical Artery Dissection is an important cause of stroke in the young. Data on incidence and associations of recurrence in patients with cervical artery dissection are lacking. Increased Vertebral Artery Tortuosity Index has been reported in patients with cervical artery dissection and associated with earlier age of arterial dissection in patients with connective tissue disease.

036 A rare subtype of a rare type of stroke - sulcal artery syndrome
A 78 year old man was woken from sleep by a sudden excruciating neck pain. The pain was accompa- nied by left arm and leg weakness and paraesthesia which progressed to maximum intensity over hours. His past medical history was significant for ischaemic heart disease and type 2 diabetes. On examination there was an incomplete Brown-Sequard syndrome localising to the left hemicord. MRI of the cervical spine showed intramedullary T2 hyperintensity and restricted diffusion in the left hemicord at C2-C3 level. CT angiogram of the vertebral arteries excluded dissection. We diagnosed acute spinal cord infarction due to a sulcal a...

Cervical Artery Dissection in Postpartum Women after Cesarean and Vaginal Delivery
Cervical artery dissections (CAD) are a disruption of the vessel wall, defined by the presence of a mural haematoma within the arterial layers.1 Although its incidence ranges from 1 to 2.6 per 100,000 patients per year,2 it is a common cause of stroke in young adults, accounting for up to 25% of ischemic strokes in this group.3,4

Angiographical Identification of Intracranial, Atherosclerosis-Related, Large Vessel Occlusion in Endovascular Treatment
Conclusions Among only a few identification methods, the ICAS-LVO can be feasibly identified by angiographical findings. The identification of ICAS-LVO based on based on occlusion type, is a reliable and practical identification method for ICAS-LVO. Procedural details by occlusion type and its predictability to endovascular results were reported. Furthermore, occlusion type can be determined before or in the early stages of the procedure, which may be most helpful in setting up an optimal endovascular treatment strategy. Author Contributions J-HB established the study idea, designed the manuscript structure, acquired an...

Antiplatelet treatment compared with anticoagulation treatment for cervical artery dissection (CADISS): a randomised trial
Publication date: Available online 12 February 2015 Source:The Lancet Neurology Background Extracranial carotid and vertebral artery dissection is an important cause of stroke, especially in young people. In some observational studies it has been associated with a high risk of recurrent stroke. Both antiplatelet drugs and anticoagulant drugs are used to reduce risk of stroke but whether one treatment strategy is more effective than the other is unknown. We compared their efficacy in the Cervical Artery Dissection in Stroke Study (CADISS), with the additional aim of establishing the true risk of recurrent stroke. Methods W...

A single-center experience of 30-day perioperative and one year clinical outcomes of transcarotid artery revascularization in 100 consecutive patients
CONCLUSION: Although the perioperative events were somewhat higher than what has been reported in previous registries, TCAR for patients who are high-risk for CEA has a low perioperative stroke and stroke/death rates with satisfactory outcome at 1 year. Further long-term data is probably needed to verify long-term outcome.PMID:35634873 | DOI:10.1177/17085381221106330

P-039 Flow diverters for treatment of ICA loop dissections or ICA dissections with associated pseudoaneurysm
ConclusionUse of flow diverters, in some cases in conjunction with (carotid) stents, is an effective treatment option for cervical carotid artery dissections, especially loop dissections with or without associated pseudo aneurysms.Disclosures J.

Greater Risk for Decompressive Craniectomy in Large-artery Strokes Due to Cervical Artery (P1.013)
CONCLUSIONS: Among young and middle-aged stroke patients, CeAD may be a higher risk for decompressive craniectomy compared to other large-artery stroke types. This association may be mediated by stroke severity, but further analysis is ongoing.Disclosure: Dr. Surakiatchanukul has nothing to disclose. Dr. Koskey has nothing to disclose.

Differences and Similarities Between Spontaneous Dissections of the Internal Carotid Artery and the Vertebral Artery
There are clinical, pathologic, and outcome differences in spontaneous dissections of the internal carotid artery vs those of the vertebral artery. Spontaneous cervical artery dissection is a major cause of stroke in younger patients. Spontaneous cervical artery dissection causes up to 25% of all ischemic strokes in patients 15 to 49 years of age (Putaala J et al, Stroke 2009;40:1195-203). Although constitutional and environmental factors are both thought to play a role in spontaneous cervical artery dissection, precise causes are poorly understood. Significant differences between spontaneous internal carotid artery disse...
