Incidence Trends and Risk of Recurrent Stroke of Cervical Artery Dissections in the United States Between 2005 and 2019
There was an almost 5-fold increase in CeAD hospitalizations and an upward incidence trend from 2005 to 2019, particularly in racial minorities, which may be attributed to increased imaging and awareness of CeAD. Our study also revealed a small but significant risk of AIS in patients with vertebral artery dissection without concurrent ischemic stroke. These findings underscore the importance of studying acute treatment and secondary prevention strategies in patients with CeAD.
