AbstractCervical carotid and vertebral artery traumatic injuries can have a devastating natural history. This article reviews the epidemiology, mechanisms of injury, clinical presentation, and classification systems pertinent to consideration of endovascular treatment. The growing role of modern endovascular techniques for the treatment of these diseases is presented to equip endovascular surgeons with a framework for critically assessing patients presenting with traumatic cervical cerebrovascular injury.

Spontaneous dissection of the major arteries of the neck is known to increase the risk of stroke or transient ischaemic attack in young and middle-aged adults. Most of the reported cases of arterial dissections in the neck involve one or both paired extracranial carotid or vertebral arteries. Spontaneous dissection of the bilateral internal carotid and vertebral arteries is extremely rare. We report a case of spontaneous bilateral internal carotid artery and vertebral artery dissection while using a prescribed pill for weight loss which contained amphetamine derivative. A review of literature is also provided.

We evaluated the feasibility of stenting in four patients. Two cases were vertebral osteal stenosis and the others were carotid stenosis at high position with ulcers. We placed balloon expandable coronary stents by a bared stent technique. The mean preprocedural stenosis (86.58%) was reduced to 13.05%. Patients were examined clinically and angiographically at 1, 3 and 6 months after stenting. There was no minor nor major stroke during and after the procedures. Asymptomatic restenosis occurred in the cases of proximal vertebral arteries. One of these patients needed to repeat balloon dilatation. There were no angiographic restenoses in the location of stenting in the carotid artery. In the treatment for atherosclerotic stenoses, stent placement is a feasible and safe method. However restenosis in a vertebral osteal lesion should be carefully followed after stent placement.
