Central retinal artery occlusion secondary to presumed traumatic carotid artery dissection in a healthy child

PURPOSE: To describe a rare case of a 13 years-old healthy child that presented CRAO secondary to carotid artery dissection, which occurred after a neck rotation movement. METHODS: Case report with prospective literature review. PATIENTS: One patient described in the case report. RESULTS: Not applic...

description PURPOSE: To describe a rare case of a 13 years-old healthy child that presented CRAO secondary to carotid artery dissection, which occurred after a neck rotation movement. METHODS: Case report with prospective literature review. PATIENTS: One patient described in the case report. RESULTS: Not applicable. DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION: Internal carotid artery dissection is a rare condition, specially in children, that can lead to serious cerebral-ocular ischemic events. It may occur due to direct vessel trauma or spontaneously. Prompt imaging screening is of paramount importance because early antithrombotic treatment or surgical intervention may significantly reduce the incidence of devastating ischemic events, such as stroke or central retinal artery occlusion.
