Treatment of Cervical Artery Dissection: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis JNNP 79:11222-1127, Menon,R.,et al, 2008 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract There are no data to support the therapeutic superiority of anticoagulants over antiplatelet agents. Thrombolysis in dissection appears safe but more data on efficacy are required. Stenting is technically possible but there are no data to demonstrate efficacy. There is little evidence to support current treatment approaches in cervical dissection. Randomized controlled prospective trials, particularly assessing anticoagulation versus antiplatelet agents, are required.
