RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Dissection of vertebral artery is an unusual pathology but sometimes is the cause of stroke in young patients. Since last years, and with the rise of some chiropractic technics, some authors have related these ones with the dissection of vertebral artery. CASE REPORT: We show a case of a 37 years old woman that after a chiropractic session began symptoms of posterior circulation dysfunction as decrease level of sense, tetraparesis and alteration of cranial nerves. The arteriography confirmed the existence of a vertebral dissection of V2 portion and thrombosis of basilar and contralateral vertebral arteries. Intraarterial fibrinolysis was performed with complete recanalization of the artery. Although this, the patient had parenchimal lesions in pons, cerebellum and territory of posterior cerebral artery that produced a locked-in syndrome. All the complementary exams were normal. DISCUSSION: We discuss the relationship between cervical manipulation as an aetiology of vertebral dissection, locked-in syndrome and therapeutic options in these patients

RESUMO

Introducción. La disección de la arteria vertebral es una patología poco frecuente, pero que en ocasiones se ha implicado en la etiología del ictus en pacientes jóvenes. Desde hace algunos años, se han relacionado determinadas técnicas quiroprácticas, que poseen un elevado grado de aceptación, con la aparición de este fenómeno. Caso clínico. Presentamos el caso de una paciente de 37 años que, después de una sesión de masaje cervical, presentó una clínica progresiva de disminución del nivel de conciencia, tetraparesia y alteración de los pares craneales compatible con trastornos de la circulación posterior. Una arteriografía confirmó la sospecha de la existencia de una disección de la arteria vertebral izquierda, segmento V2, con una trombosis basilar y vertebral contralateral secundarias. Se realizó una fibrinólisis intrarterial y se consiguió la lisis del trombo y la recanalización arterial. A pesar de ello, la paciente presentó múltiples lesiones parenquimatosas en el tronco, el cerebelo y el territorio de la arteria cerebral posterior, que configuraron un síndrome clínico de enclaustramiento. El estudio etiológico mostró una absoluta normalidad de todas las exploraciones practicadas. Discusión. Se discuten las posibles relaciones de la manipulación cervical como causa de disección vertebral, su implicación etiológica con el síndrome de enclaustramiento y las opciones terapéuticas en estos pacientes (AU)

RESUMO

CASE REPORT: Girl, aged 4, without antecedents who was admitted to our hospital for drowsiness and progressive sensorial depression. Within 24 hours the clinical picture deteriorated with partial seizures of the right hand side of the body and right hemiparesis. A brain CAT scan showed a left temporoparietal parenchymatous haematoma with collapse of the left lateral ventricle and moderate obliteration of the basal cisterns. MR angiography and cerebral arteriography displayed images that were compatible with thrombosis of the superior sagittal, the left transverse and the sigmoid sinuses. The patient was heterozygotic for the G A mutation in position 20210 of the prothrombin gene, which is linked with a high risk of thrombosis. She was given heparin intravenously, but continued to display endocranial hypertension and tissue ischemia with partial response to hyperosmolar agents and barbituric coma. She was therefore submitted to selective catheterization of the superior sagittal sinus and continuous local fibrinolysis with urokinase for 72 hours. The outcome was satisfactory, with repermeabilisation of the thrombosed sinuses and a good clinical response with no complications. At present the patient has functional paresis of the right hand and receives treatment with oral anticoagulants. CONCLUSIONS: We advocate the use of early local fibrinolytic treatment with urokinase in children affected by thrombosis of the venous sinuses who do not respond to treatment with sodium heparin. We consider it necessary to include the molecular study of the G20210A mutation of the prothrombin gene in screening for prothrombotic risk factors in small children

RESUMO

Caso clínico. Niña de 4 años sin antecedentes que ingresa en nuestro hospital por somnolencia y progresiva depresión del sensorio. En 24 horas se agrava el cuadro con crisis parciales del hemicuerpo derecho y hemiparesia derecha. La tomografía (TAC) craneal muestra hematoma parenquimatoso temporoparietal izquierdo con un colapso del ventrículo lateral izquierdo y moderada obliteración de cisternas basales. La angio-RM y la arteriografía cerebral definen imágenes compatibles con trombosis de los senos sagital superior, transverso izquierdo y sigmoide. La paciente es heterocigota para la mutación G A en la posición 20210 del gen de la protrombina, asociada con un riesgo elevado de trombosis. Recibe heparina endovenosa y persiste hipertensión endocraneal e isquemia tisular con respuesta parcial a agentes hiperosmolares y coma barbitúrico, por lo cual se realiza cateterización selectiva del seno sagital superior, y se procede a realizar una fibrinólisis local con urocinasa continua durante 72 horas. El resultado es satisfactorio, con repermeabilización de los senos trombosados y buena respuesta clínica, en ausencia de complicaciones. Actualmente la paciente presenta paresia funcional en la mano derecha y recibe tratamiento con anticoagulantes orales. Conclusiones. Propugnamos el tratamiento fibrinolítico local precoz con urocinasa en niños afectos de trombosis de senos venosos que no responden al tratamiento con heparina sódica. Consideramos necesario incluir el estudio molecular de la mutación G20210A del gen de la protrombina en el cribaje de factores de riesgo protrombótico en la población pediátrica (AU)
