BACKGROUND: Isolated brain infarction in the anterior cerebral artery (ACA) territory is rare, and its etiology has not yet been fully elucidated. Thus, we aimed to determine the etiologic and clinical characteristics of patients with isolated ACA territory infarction due to arterial dissection.
METHODS: Of 2315 patients with acute cerebral infarction admitted to our hospital between April 2007 and September 2013, 34 patients (1.5%; 28 men, 6 women; mean age, 65 ± 15 years) suffered isolated ACA territory infarction. We performed cranial magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and MR angiography for all the patients. Whenever possible, we also performed 3-dimensional computed tomography angiography, digital subtraction angiography, and MR cisternography to diagnose the stroke subtype.
RESULTS: The stroke subtypes of the 34 patients with isolated ACA territory infarction were atherothrombotic infarction, cardioembolic infarction, arterial dissection, and unclassified in 11 patients (32%), 11 patients (32%), 11 patients (32%), and 1 patient (3%), respectively. The mean ages at onset were 48 ± 9 and 72 ± 11 years in the dissection and nondissection groups, respectively (P < .001). Headaches were present at onset in 4 patients (36%) and 1 patient (4%) with and without dissection, respectively (P = .026). Blood pressure at onset was significantly higher among patients with dissection (systolic, 179 ± 34 mm Hg; diastolic, 102 ± 17 mm Hg) than among patients without dissection (systolic, 155 ± 30 mm Hg; diastolic, 86 ± 21 mm Hg; P < .05), and d-dimer values were significantly lower among patients with dissection (P = .034). Favorable clinical outcome (modified Rankin Scale score, 0-2) at discharge was achieved in 9 patients (82%) and 10 patients (43%) with and without dissection, respectively (P = .035).
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with isolated ACA territory infarction demonstrated a relatively high frequency of dissection (32%). Patients with dissection were younger, had a higher frequency of headaches, and demonstrated more favorable prognoses than patients without dissection.
