Mechanical disorders of the cervicocerebral circulation in children and young adults
2024
Overview
Mechanical disorders of the cervicocerebral circulation (MDCC) are conditions in which neurological symptoms result from a disturbance of cerebral blood flow attributable to external mechanical forces exerted on extracranial blood vessels by adjacent musculoskeletal structures during head movement that is presumably within a physiological range. The disease spectrum includes bow hunter’s syndrome, carotid-type Eagle syndrome, and various dynamic venous compression syndromes. These conditions have distinct phenotypes in children which differ from those expressed in older adults. In contemporary practice, recognition and diagnostic evaluation is the domain of the neuroendovascular specialist. The diagnostic evaluation of MDCC involves significant technical nuance that can be critical to directing appropriate management, particularly in children. This report aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the pathophysiology, anatomical patterns, diagnosis, and treatment for the full spectrum of MDCC that is commonly encountered in clinical practice.
