These cases emphasise the diagnostic and management difficulties in this setting. Stroke in sport, although uncommon, is predominantly due to arterial dissection in either the vertebral or carotid arteries. Physicians involved in athlete care need to be aware of this diagnosis. | Gov't Doc #: | 10938604 | URI: | http://ahro.austin.org.au/austinjspui/handle/1/9240 | DOI: | 10.1054/jocn.1999.0189 | Journal: | Journal of Clinical Neuroscience | URL: | https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10938604 | Type: | Journal Article | Subjects: | Adolescent Adult Athletic Injuries.etiology.physiopathology Humans Male Middle Aged Stroke.etiology.physiopathology Vertebral Artery Dissection.complications.physiopathology |
