BackgroundCervicocerebral artery dissection is an important cause of ischemic stroke in young and middle-aged individuals. However, very few studies have compared the differential features between internal carotid artery dissection (ICAD) and vertebral artery dissection (VAD), including both cervical and intracranial artery dissections. We conducte...

BackgroundPatients with vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) occasionally suffer from arterial dissection. Eagle syndrome, which is caused by an elongated styloid process and also causes arterial dissection, is difficult to diagnose and could sometimes be overlooked. Little is known of the coexistence of these two diseases, and treatment strategy ...

We report a case of a 53-year-old woman admitted to the emergency department with left hemiplegia, tinnitus and palpitations. A cerebral and cervical computed tomography angiography revealed an acute large ischemic stroke on the right Sylvian territory, which was related to a dissection of the right internal carotid. Moreover, a left internal carot...

BackgroundCarotid artery dissection due to extension of aortic dissection (CAEAD) is a severe complication of acute aortic dissection. The risk of ischemic stroke is increased. Early sonographic detection and repeat evaluation are necessary to guide clinical management.Case presentationA 58-year-old male patient presents with sudden, tearing retros...

Cervical artery dissection (CAD) is a leading cause of ischaemic stroke (IS) in young and middle-aged adults. Despite well characterized clinical presentation, the diagnosis of CAD can be quite challenging due to a wide variety of symptoms ranging from minor neck pain to severe neurological symptoms. Invasive diagnostic procedures such as DSA are n...

Carotid artery dissection is a significant etiology of juvenile stroke. Blunt trauma from an elongated styloid process can rarely cause carotid artery dissection, which is one of well-known clinical presentations of Eagle's syndrome as known as stylocarotid syndrome. Growing number of publications contributed improved awareness and diagnostic modal...

Cervical artery dissection (CAD) is responsible for up to 20% of all ischaemic strokes in patients younger than 45. The benefits of acute-phase reperfusion therapy in these patients have yet to be confirmed. We conducted a retrospective review of patients with CAD admitted to a comprehensive stroke centre between 2010 and 2015. We recorded baseline...

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is a rare genetic connective tissue disorders, but the vascular type (type IV) typically poses the greatest risk to patients. We report a case of multiple cranial artery dissection, which was successfully treated with carotid artery stenting. A 50-year-old woman presented with recurrent severe headaches caused by bilate...
