ABSTRACT

Dissection of the internal carotid artery is an important cause of ischemic stroke in children and young patients. Trauma and/or an underlying structural defect of the arterial wall have been suggested to be predisposing factors. The typical patient presents with ipsilateral headache or neck pain, ipsilateral Horner's syndrome and delayed ischemic symptoms. Diagnosis is given by ultrasound, transcranial Doppler, magnetic resonance imaging, magnetic resonance angiography and conventional angiography. Treatment of this type of injury includes anticoagulation therapy, antiplatelet therapy and surgery. We report a 14-year-old boy with internal carotid artery dissection who presented with ischemic stroke.

ABSTRACT

La disección de la arteria carótida interna es una causa importante de ictus isquémico en niños y pacientes jóvenes. En la patogenia se han implicado traumatismos y/o un posible defecto estructural de la pared arterial. Las manifestaciones clínicas típicas incluyen cefalea o dolor de cuello y síndrome de Horner en el lado de la disección, con la aparición después de síntomas isquémicos cerebrales. La ecografía, el Doppler transcraneal, la resonancia magnética (RM), la angiorresonancia y la angiografía proporcionan el diagnóstico. Las opciones de tratamiento comprenden anticoagulantes, antiagregantes plaquetarios y cirugía. Presentamos un adolescente de 14 años con un ictus isquémico secundario a disección de la arteria carótida interna. (AU)
