Description

Ilaria De Negri and co-authors report a 2026 conference case report on artery tears in three neck vessels of a woman aged forty-five, with no cause found. Tears in these vessels are a rare stroke cause overall but a leading one in adults under fifty. Known triggers span injury, neck strain, smoking, and tissue flaws.

The woman arrived with a throbbing headache, neck pain, leaning to one side, and unsteady walking. Scans showed a small stroke at the back of the brain. Deeper scans found tears in both back neck arteries and in the left front neck artery. Thinning drug care was started and brought to target. A full gene panel for tissue flaws came back clear, and the authors note some cases stay unexplained.
