note

This article isn't very well done. It conflates completed ischemic stroke, TIA, the intermittent syndrome of VBI, and arterial dissection syndromes, as if the author did not really understand that these are four distinct clinical entities with different causes, different manifestations, and different consequences. Someone ought to wipe it and start anew. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 47.35.2.40 (talk) 02:28, 13 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
