Acute Ischaemic Stroke in a Young Adult in Sub-Saharan Africa: A Case Report of Post-strangulation Carotid Artery Dissection
Journal of Stroke Medicine(2024)
摘要
Cerebrovascular accidents (CVA) remain one of the major causes of disabilities and mortality worldwide. In the young, carotid artery dissection (CAD) accounts for close to one-quarter of ischaemic strokes, occurring either spontaneously or due to a traumatic mechanism such as strangulation. We hereby, report a case of a young adult with large-vessel occlusion due to post-strangulation internal CAD. This case highlights the importance of raising awareness of the possibility of CAD in the presence of any focal neurologic deficit due to strangulation.
