Intracranial artery dissections are rare, with limited data compared to extracranial dissections. Understanding the dissection location within the arterial wall is crucial for determining treatment and prognosis for ischemic or aneurysmal complications.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Vascular Surgery
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Intracranial artery dissections are infrequently reported, unlike more studied extracranial dissections.
  • The arterial wall's specific dissection layer significantly impacts clinical presentation and outcomes.
  • Limited data exists on the pathology and clinical course of intracranial dissections.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the underlying pathology and etiology of intracranial dissections.
  • To discuss the clinical manifestations of both ischemic and aneurysmal intracranial dissections.
  • To provide a comprehensive overview of intracranial dissections.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of intracranial dissections.
  • Analysis of pathology and etiology.

  • Discussion of clinical findings, treatment, and prognosis.
  • Main Results:

    • Dissections between the intima and media lead to vascular occlusion and ischemia.
    • Dissections between the media and adventitia can cause aneurysmal dilatation and rupture.
    • Pathology dictates whether the dissection presents as ischemic or aneurysmal.

    Conclusions:

    • Accurate identification of dissection plane is key for managing intracranial dissections.
    • Intracranial dissections can manifest with diverse clinical presentations, including ischemia and aneurysm formation.
    • Further research is needed to fully elucidate the characteristics of intracranial dissections.
