Embolic stroke associated with handheld electric neck massager: A case report and literature review
Background
Handheld neck massagers pose a risk for thromboembolic stroke, a topic that has not been thoroughly explored in the literature.
Case description and literature review
We present a case of acute ischemic stroke in a 79-year-old male patient who experienced left upper extremity weakness after using a handheld neck massager. Imaging revealed a ruptured stenotic atherosclerotic plaque at the right internal carotid artery bulb and acute infarcts in the right middle cerebral artery vascular territory. A literature review identified other cases involving handheld massage devices.
Conclusions
Neck massager use can contribute to thromboembolic stroke in rare cases when atherosclerotic plaque is present. Recognizing this risk is important for understanding stroke etiology.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Stroke & Cerebrovascular Diseases publishes original papers on basic and clinical science related to the fields of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases. The Journal also features review articles, controversies, methods and technical notes, selected case reports and other original articles of special nature. Its editorial mission is to focus on prevention and repair of cerebrovascular disease. Clinical papers emphasize medical and surgical aspects of stroke, clinical trials and design, epidemiology, stroke care delivery systems and outcomes, imaging sciences and rehabilitation of stroke. The Journal will be of special interest to specialists involved in caring for patients with cerebrovascular disease, including neurologists, neurosurgeons and cardiologists.
