Dissection of cerebral vessels represents an important cause of stroke in young patients without cardiovascular risk factors. Clinical feature of this pathology is quite peculiar and is described as combination of cephalea, Horner’s syndrome and cerebral ischemia. Clinical suspicion and fast access to ecocolordoppler are the only ways to save vessels’ patency and to restore cerebral blood flow.
