Sirimaharaj N, Thiankhaw K. Internal carotid artery and bilateral vertebral arteries dissections associated with amphetamine abuse: Case report. Ann Med Surg (Lond) 2021; 68:102676. [PMID: 34401140 PMCID: PMC8353386 DOI: 10.1016/j.amsu.2021.102676] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2021] [Revised: 08/01/2021] [Accepted: 08/03/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Arterial dissection is an important cause of stroke in young patients. Various factors influencing arterial dissection included amphetamine abuse and anterior circulation is the majority of stroke locations. We reported the Case of a 40-year-old male patient with chronic amphetamine used since childhood. He had increased the consumption from once a month to every other day in the last year. The patient suffered from acute left-side hemiparesis and neglect. Computed tomography angiography of the brain and neck vessels demonstrated non-atheromatous vasculopathy with a suspected dissection process of the right internal carotid artery and bilateral vertebral arteries. A review of recent data is also provided to clarify the possible mechanism. Arterial dissection is one of the most common causes of stroke in young-adults. Dissection of both anterior and posterior cerebral circulations is extremely rare. Amphetamine abuse has been described as a potential cause of arterial dissection. Drug abuse screening should be performed in stroke in the young presuming dissection.

Winsløw F, Hansen NS, Jensen MB. Vertebral Artery Dissection Related to Amphetamine Abuse - A Case Report. J Cent Nerv Syst Dis 2020; 12:1179573520939340.

Abstract
We report the case of a 37-year-old male patient with chronic amphetamine abuse who presented with vertebral artery dissection. Prior to presentation, he had increased the consumption of amphetamine from 5 times a year to once every week and had used amphetamine on the day of presentation. He attended with neck pain, vertigo and coordinating difficulties of his left arm. Computed tomography angiogram of the neck vessels showed a left vertebral stenosis and cerebral magnetic resonance imaging showed a left vertebral pseudolumen and a medullary stroke. Cervical artery dissection is a major cause of stroke in the young. To the authors’ knowledge, this is the second reported case of vertebral artery dissection in a patient with amphetamine abuse. Amphetamine might contribute to an increased risk of vertebral artery dissection through its vasculopathic properties although more data are needed to establish a causal relationship.
