Connective tissue disorders in dissections of the carotid or vertebral arteries.
Journal of Clinical Neuroscience : Official Journal of the Neurosurgical Society of Australasia 2008 May

Their etiology includes not only mechanical forces but also underlying arteriopathies such as Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type IV and other connective tissue disorders.

However, in some of these patients ultrastructural connective tissue changes can be detected. An overview of connective tissue disorders associated with dissections of the carotid or vertebral arteries is presented.
