Intracranial atheromatosis is one of the most frequent causes of stroke. It is usually a slowly progressive process and normally associated with the sum of vascular risk factors.
In this case we present a rapidly progressive development of intracranial atheromatosis demonstrated by serial neuroimaging techniques and sample analysis in a 72-year-old female patient with high levels of interleukin-6 and C-reactive protein, with no signs of vasculitis.
Rapidly progressive intracranial atheromatosis should be considered in adult patients over 50 years of age with recurrent stroke.
颅内动脉粥样硬化是中风最常见的病因之一。它通常是一个缓慢进展的过程,通常与血管危险因素的总和相关。
在本病例中,我们通过系列神经影像学技术和样本分析展示了一名72岁女性患者颅内动脉粥样硬化的快速进展,该患者白细胞介素-6和C反应蛋白水平高,无血管炎迹象。
50岁以上反复中风的成年患者应考虑快速进展性颅内动脉粥样硬化。
