Hence, a computed tomography angiography of intra- and extracranial vessels was performed, which revealed a bilateral intimal flap in the intracranial portion of internal carotid artery that was also confirmed by a further computed tomography angiography control, with no evidence of intramural hematomas; this finding was compatible with bilateral dissection (Figures 1 and 2).
