Bilateral vertebral artery dissection extending to the left posterior cerebral artery: A case report

Radiology Case Reports, 2023
Intracranial artery dissection accounts for a small percentage (1%-2%) of all ischemic strokes. Vertebral artery dissection sometimes extends to the basilar artery but very rarely to the posterior cerebral artery.

Vertebral Artery Dissection

BMJ Case Reports
Vertebral artery dissections are a rare pathology that carries a high risk of stroke in a younger population. They may be caused by minor mechanisms and the index of suspicion should be high. Treatment with anticoagulation or antiplatelets should follow if no surgical management is indicated. We describe a case of a female in her 30s who

Internal trapping for ruptured vertebral artery dissection involving the anterior spinal artery: A case report [PDF]

Radiology Case Reports
Endovascular treatment of ruptured vertebral artery dissections in the acute phase often requires consideration of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery; however, the anterior spinal artery has seldom been discussed.

Outer lumen arterial imaging with CTA: A potential tool to diagnose vertebral artery dissection [PDF]

Radiology Case Reports
Differentiating vertebral artery dissection (VAD) from vertebral artery hypoplasia (VAH) can be difficult with standard CT/CTA imaging. However, making this distinction is critical to providing appropriate patient management.

Subsequent Subarachnoid Hemorrhage from Clinically Unrelated Vertebral Artery Dissection after Thrombolytic Therapy [PDF]

Neurointervention, 2022
Thrombolysis administration poses certain safety issues in ischemic stroke patients with cerebrovascular changes that are vulnerable to hemorrhage. Furthermore, the lack of related studies has resulted in an unclear understanding of thrombolysis safety ...

Vertebral artery dissection in relation to pregnancy: a case series and literature review

AJOG Global Reports, 2023
Cervical artery dissection is an uncommon condition for which pregnancy and postpartum states confer increased risk. Although the majority of patients with this condition fully recover, including resolution of the dissection on imaging, long-term ...
