Cervical Artery Dissection: Emerging Risk Factors
Cervical artery dissection (CAD) represents an increasingly recognized cause of stroke and the most common cause of ischemic stroke in young adults. Many factors have been identified in association with CAD such as primary disease of arterial wall (fibrodysplasia) and other non-specific diseases related to CAD like Ehlers Danlos-syndrome IV, Marfan's syndrome, vessel tortuosity.

متن کاملCervical-artery dissections: predisposing factors, diagnosis, and outcome.
Cervical-artery dissection (CAD) is a major cause of cerebral ischaemia in young adults and can lead to various clinical symptoms, some of which are benign (eg, headache, neck pain, Horner's syndrome, and cranial-nerve palsy), but most patients have a stroke or transient ischaemic attack. In addition to trauma to the neck, other risk factors have been suggested, such as infection, migraine, hyp...
متن کاملAneurysmal forms of cervical artery dissection : associated factors and outcome.

The aims of this study were to assess (1) clinical and anatomic outcome of aneurysmal forms of extracranial internal carotid artery (ICA) and vertebral artery (VA) dissections and (2) factors associated with aneurysmal forms of CAD. METHODS Seventy-one consecutive patients with C...
متن کاملSpontaneous cervical artery dissection: from risk factors toward pathogenesis.
The pathogenesis of a cervical artery dissection (CAD) remains unknown in most cases.1,2 Dissections are usually classified as either traumatic or spontaneous.3 However, mechanical trauma did not appear to be an important and frequent cause for the development of CAD, neither in clinical nor in histopathological studies. Chiropractic maneuver, for instance, was repeatedly discussed as a risk fa...
متن کاملGender and cervical artery dissection.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE To analyze previously established gender differences in cervical artery dissection (CeAD). METHODS This case-control study is based on the CADISP (Cervical Artery Dissection and Ischemic Stroke Patients) population comprising 983 consecutive CeAD patients (mean age: 44.1 ± 9.9 years) and 658 control patients with a non-CeAD ischemic stroke (IS) (44.5 ± 10.5 years). RE...
