ABSTRACT
Vertebral artery dissection (VAD) is a rare cause of young age stroke. This risky condition can be caused by even minor head or neck trauma. None of the previous studies has reported cough-related intracranial vertebral arterial dissection in Korea. We present two cases of cerebral infarctions from VAD induced by severe coughing. We should be alert to clinical manifestations of VAD to make proper diagnosis and to recognize coughing as a potential cause of VAD.
