The Right

Spontaneous renal artery dissection is a rare condition with an often non-specific presentation, resulting in a challenging diagnosis for clinicians. This is the case of a 39-year-old man who presented with an acute-onset right flank pain, mild neutrophilia and sterile urine. CT of abdomen and pelvis showed a patchy hypodense area in the right kidney originally thought to represent infection. He was treated as an atypical pyelonephritis with antibiotics and fluids. When his symptoms failed to improve, a diagnosis of renal infarction was considered and CT angiogram of the aorta revealed a spontaneous renal artery dissection. He was managed conservatively with systemic anticoagulation, antihypertensive treatment and analgesia and discharged home with resolution of his symptoms and normal renal function.

Abstract Subarachnoid hemorrhage represents a rare event in pregnancy with a high mortality rate. We present the case of a 39-year-old pregnant woman who developed right vertebral artery dissection with subsequent massive subarachnoid hemorrhage with fatal outcome. The macroscopic and microscopic autopsy findings are described. A review of the literature with a discussion of the varied predisposing factors for vertebral artery dissection and subarachnoid hemorrhage and the rarity of these events in pregnancy is provided.
