Blunt cerebrovascular injury (BCVI) with concurrent traumatic brain injury (TBI) presents increased risk of both ischemic stroke and bleeding. This study investigated the safety and survival benefit of BCVI treatment (antithrombotic and/or anticoagulant therapy) in this population. We hypothesized that treatment would be associated with fewer and later strokes in patients with BCVI and TBI without increasing bleeding complications. Patients with head AIS >0 were selected from a database of BCVI patients previously obtained for an observational trial. A Kaplan-Meier analysis compared stroke survival in patients who received BCVI treatment to those who did not. Logistic regression was used to evaluate for confounding variables. Of 488 patients, 347 (71.1%) received BCVI treatment and 141 (28.9%) did not. BCVI treatment was given at a median of 31h post-admission. BCVI treatment was associated with lower stroke rate (4.9% vs 24.1%, P < .001 and longer stroke-free survival (P < .001), but also less severe systemic injury. Logistic regression identified motor GCS and BCVI treatment as the only predictors of stroke. No patients experienced worsening TBI because of treatment. Patients with BCVI and TBI who did not receive BCVI treatment had an increased rate of stroke early in their hospital stay, though this effect may be confounded by worse motor deficits and systemic injuries. BCVI treatment within 2-3days of admission may be safe for patients with mean head AIS of 2.6. Future prospective trials are needed to confirm these findings and determine optimal timing of BCVI treatment in TBI patients with BCVI.
