Abstract
Hemorrhagic intracranial artery dissections are unstable lesions, with a high propensity for rebleeding (up to 40%) in the acute period. Imaging plays an important role in the diagnosis and management of intracranial artery dissections. In this paper, we describe 2 cases in which the dissected intracranial artery underwent rapid morphological change within 3 days or less, highlighting the importance of short-term follow-up imaging in patients with these hemorrhagic lesions.Entities:
