Cervical dissection diagnoses increase following endovascular treatments.

Objectives: The detection of cervical arterial dissection (CAD) has been rising in recent years owing to advanced imaging techniques. The aim of this study was to explore whether wide implementation of endovascular treatment for ischemic stroke has an impact on the diagnosis of CAD.

Methods: We included all patients with CAD diagnosed at two university hospitals in Seville, Spain from January 2015 to December 2017.
