A 42-year-old presented with neck pain and neurological deficits, later diagnosed with right internal carotid artery dissection. Prompt anticoagulation therapy led to partial neurological recovery.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Vascular Surgery

Background:

  • Cervical pain and neurological deficits can indicate serious vascular events.
  • Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for managing carotid artery dissection.

Observation:

  • A 42-year-old male presented with right neck and facial pain, left hemiparesis, and symptoms of alcohol intoxication.
  • Computed tomography revealed right hemispherical brain ischemia.

Findings:

  • Diagnosis of right internal carotid artery dissection was confirmed via ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging.
  • Treatment involved full-dose heparin followed by oral anticoagulation.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the importance of considering cervical artery dissection in patients with neurological symptoms, even with confounding factors like alcohol intoxication.
