Cardioembolism. Cardioembolic infarcts are due to thrombi that form within the heart and then
embolize into the cerebral circulation. Atrial fibrillation is the most common cardiac source of
emboli.Othercardiacsourcesincludeintracardiactumorsorthrombi,infectiveendocarditis(with
septic emboli originating from affected valves), a severely reduced ejection fraction, and aortic
archatheroma(althoughnottechnicallyofcardiacorigin,theseemboliactthesameasiftheycame

Largearteryatherosclerosis.Thespecificvesselsthatqualifyas“large”remaindebatable,butfor
our purposes we’re talking about the big vessels that bring blood into the brain, including the
commonandinternalcarotidarteries,thevertebralandbasilararteries,andtheproximalportionsof
theACAs,MCAs,andPCAs.Thesevesselsarepredisposedtoatheroscleroticnarrowingatsitesof
bifurcation (e.g., where the common carotid artery splits into the internal and external
carotidarteries)andsitesoforigin(e.g.,atthetake-offofthevertebralarteriesfromthesubclavian
arteries),butatherosclerosiscan—andoftendoes—occurwhereveritlikes.Therearethreemajor
mechanismsbywhichthisprocesscancauseischemicstroke:

Box2.3StrokeintheYoung
Thetypicalculpritsthatincreasetheriskofischemicstroke—hypertension,hyperlipidemia,
atrialfibrillation,etc.—arefarlesscommoninyoungpatients,whichinthiscontextisanyone
lessthan50yearsofage.Whenyoungpatients—likeourpatient,Laura—presentwith
stroke,theyoftenrequireabitmorethinkingandamoreextensivework-uptodeterminethe
underlyingcause.Inthispopulation,themostcommonetiologiestoconsiderare:
Arterialdissection(seepage84)
Hypercoagulability: Keep in mind that in the setting of stroke we need to consider
conditions that predispose to arterial thromboembolism, such as antiphospholipid
syndrome,underlying malignancy,and the useof estrogen-containing birth controlpills
when combined with cigarette smoking. Conditions that predispose only to venous
thromboembolism, suchasprotein Cor Sdeficiency,are relevant to stroke only inthe
settingofaPFOorsomeothertypeofatrialseptaldefect.
Cardioembolism: Unlike in older patients, cardioembolism is less often the result of
atrialfibrillationandmoreoftentheresultofconditionssuchascongenitalheartdisease,
dilatedcardiomyopathies,infectiveendocarditis,intracardiactumors,andaPFO.
Vasculitis:Thesecanbeinfectious,autoimmune,anddrugrelated;seepage88.
Genetic syndromes: Specific syndromesthat predispose to stroke includesickle cell
disease,CADASIL,andmoyamoya,seeBox2.4.
Illicit drug use: Cocaine, methamphetamines, and other stimulants can cause rapid
elevationsinbloodpressure,cardiacarrhythmias,anddiffusevasospasm.
