dc.descriptionIn young and middle age subjects, spontaneous carotid dissection is an increasingly recognized cause of ischemic stroke. Their usual presentation is facial pain with a Horner syndrome and a contra lateral paresis. Blindness has been reported as a presenting symptom in only a few cases.
