We report an unusual case of PAMM with cerebral infarction caused by carotid dissection without systemic risk factors.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Case description<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A 55-year-old man presented with acute painless left visual loss and partial sensory aphasia, followed by right-sided weakness. Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 0.04 in the left eye. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) showed hyperreflective lesions at the OPL-INL junction; enface imaging revealed fern-like hyperreflective lesions in the inner nuclear layer (INL). OCT angiography (OCTA) demonstrated diffuse macular hypoperfusion. Brain MRI showed left basal ganglia infarction, and angiography confirmed left internal carotid artery (ICA) dissection and near occlusion. After carotid stenting and dual-antiplatelet therapy, BCVA improved to 0.8 at 3\u202fmonths with OCTA-confirmed retinal reperfusion.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n
