Abstract
A 43-year-old woman presented 1 day after whiplash injury with behavior change, hypersomnia, and abulia. MRI showed symmetrical globus pallidus infarction and bilateral watershed hypoperfusion. Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) showed bilateral carotid artery dissection. To our knowledge, isolated symmetrical globus pallidus infarction related to bilateral carotid dissection has never been reported earlier.Entities:
