Brief Summary: Primary objective To determine whether pregnancy increases the risk of recurrent CeAD and delayed stroke in women with prior CeAD based on long-term data

Methods Multicentric observational case-control study based on pooled individual patient data from several stroke centers

Primary endpoint Primary composite outcome measure includes the following outcomes i occurrence of recurrent CeAD ii occurrence of ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke iii death
Detailed Description: Background Cervical artery dissection CeAD is a leading cause of stroke in women of childbearing age Among the population with an initial CeAD about 9 show a recurrence event a range from 0 to 25 has been reported Recurrence of CeAD can occur for several years after the initial event CeAD has been shown to occur in association with pregnancy and the postpartum period yet it remains unclear whether pregnancy increases the risk of recurrence or delayed stroke Previous studies on this subject are either based on small sample sizes or lack long-term data

Objective The investigators want to determine whether pregnancy increases the risk of recurrent CeAD and delayed stroke in women with prior CeAD based on long-term data

Furthermore it will be investigated whether the mode of delivery affects recurrence and if dissections occurred during a particular phase of a womans reproductive process The investigators will also investigate if women actively decided against another pregnancy due to the initial CeAD

Methods This study will be a multicenter exploratory case-control study using pooled individual patient data from several stroke centers The data will be obtained through review of medical records and patient interviews The study will include all women with any prior CeAD who have had long-term follow-up at least 6 months with no upper limit including information about pregnancy and recurrence of CeAD

Primary endpoint is a composite outcome measure which consists of i occurrence of recurrent CeAD ii occurrence of ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke iii death Secondary endpoints are the individual components of the primary endpoint and functional outcome assessed by the modified Ranking scale

Statistical analysis will be used to determine the odds of the primary and secondary endpoints in women who had subsequent pregnancies compared to those who did not
