Abstract:
When an ischemic stroke occurs due to bone or cartilage dynamically affecting vessels supplying the brain, it is called bony stroke. We herein report a patient with recurrent cryptogenic stroke that was thought to be a bony stroke. Dynamic three-dimensional computed tomography angiography revealed mechanical compression of the vertebral artery by the hyoid bone and thyroid cartilage. The patient had a recurrent stroke during antiplatelet therapy. Surgical removal of bone tissue prevents stroke recurrence.
摘要:
当由于骨骼或软骨动态影响供应大脑的血管而发生缺血性中风时,它被称为骨中风。我们在此报告了一名复发性隐源性卒中患者,该患者被认为是骨卒中。动态三维计算机断层扫描血管造影显示舌骨和甲状软骨对椎动脉的机械压缩。患者在抗血小板治疗期间出现复发性中风。手术切除骨组织可防止中风复发。
