Dec 28th, 2020 - The oculomotor nerve has two major fibers: the outer autonomic fiber innervates the ciliary muscles and sphincter pupillae involved in pupil constriction, and the inner somatic fiber innervates the levator palpebrae superioris in the eyelid and fo...

Dec 11th, 2020 - Cervicocerebral 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 arte...

Dec 1st, 2020 - Carotid artery dissection is one of the most common causes of ischaemic stroke in young and middle-aged population. We report a case of bilateral carotid artery dissection presenting with opercular syndrome or Foix-Chavany-Marie syndrome. This 46-...

Nov 29th, 2020 - Cerebral malperfusion and carotid artery dissection in patients with acute type A aortic dissections (TAAD) carry high morbidity and mortality. There are limited data on outcomes of concomitant carotid artery replacement with total arch replacemen...

Nov 26th, 2017 - The treatment of internal carotid artery dissection consists of anticoagulation with intravenous heparin followed by oral anticoagulation for 3-6 months.[13] However, no randomized controlled trials support such a therapeutic approach, and the val...

May 1st, 2017 - Conclusion We have reported the case of a 32-year-old professional hockey goaltender who presented with isolated, persistent, worsening headache of delayed onset after ICA dissection. The ICA dissection resulted from indirect trauma, with reaction.

Jul 5th, 2016 - In ICAD, a tear in the artery wall causes blood to enter the tunica media of the vessel, forming an intramural hematoma. 2,6 This may result in either stenosis of the lumen of the vessel from the enlarging hematoma or an outward aneurysmal dilatati.
