    AbstractINDICENCE: Cervical artery dissection (CAD) is one of the major cause of cerebral infarction before 45 years of age. The average annual incidencerate is between 2.5 and 3 per 100,000, but the reported incidence of CAD is probably underestimated because of frequent asymptomatic forms, or producing only minor and local symptoms. Dissection of the internal carotid artery (ICA) is more frequent than dissection of the vertebral artery (VA) and intracranial dissection is less frequent than extracranial dissection.
