Abstract (2. Language): 
The importance of dissections in young stroke patients have been emphasized currently. Carotis artery dissections are more frequent than the vertebral artery. The clinical picture of vertebro-basilar artery dissections is one of an occlusion of intracranial arteries. In this article, the clinical features and evaluation of a young stroke patient due to vertebral artery dissection and the value of intra-arterial thrombolytic therapy has been debated. Observation.- Forty-two years old male patient was brought to emergency room. The patient had clinical features of a sudden onset brain stem dysfunction. An early CT scan revealed a hyperdensity over the basilar artery suggestive of a basilar artery trombosis. In order to find out the etiology and to treat this young onset stroke patient, an angiography was performed revealing a vertebral artery dissection and a basilar artery trombosis secondary to this dissection. Three hours after the insult, he was treated with intra-arterial urokinase. An early recovery was observed.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Genç yaş serebro-vasküler olaylarında diseksiyonların etyolojideki yeri giderek daha önem kazanmaktadır. Daha ziyade karotis sistemine ait görülen diseksiyonlar vertebral arterde seyrektir. Bu yazıda vertebral arter diseksiyonu gelişmiş serebro-vasküler olaylı bir hastanın klinik öyküsü, tanıya gidişteki aşamalar ve erken intra-arteryal trombolitik tedavinin uygulamadaki yerinin vurgulanması amaçlanmıştır. Kırkiki yaşında bir erkek hasta ani olarak gelişen inme ile acil ünitemize getirilmiş ve yapılan kranyal BT tetkikinde baziler arter trombozu varlığından şüphe edilmiştir. Klinik özellikleri ile beyin sapı yetersizliğini düşündüren hastaya tanı ve gerekirse tedavi amacıyla anjiyografi yapılmış ve hastada vertebral arter diseksiyonu ve buna sekonder baziler arter trombozu saptanmıştır. Klinik bulguların başlangıcından üç saat sonra baziler arter trombozu intra-arteryal ürokinaz yardımı ile endovasküler olarak rekanalize edilebilmiştir. Hastada hızlı bir düzelme izlenmiştir.
