Abstract
The course of cervicocephalic fibromuscular dysplasia is mainly asymptomatic. It is often found as an incidental finding on autopsy or angiography mostly in women and is commonly located in extracranial region of carotid artery. In the present article, we reported a 21 year-old man who has been initially accepted to our intensive care with a tentative diagnosis of cerebrovascular infarct after having symptoms of loss of consciousness and right hemiparesis. He later received a certain diagnosis of fibromuscular dysplasia after neuroimaging findings. This disorder should be considered in differential diagnosis of young stroke patients.

Abstract
Servikosefalik Fibromusküler displazi çoğunlukla asemptomatiktir. Kadınlarda daha sık olup çoğunlukla rastlantısal olarak otopside ya da anjiyografide tanı konulur. Karotis arterin en sık ekstrakranial karotis arter bölgesinde saptanır. Şuur kaybı, sağ yan güçsüzlüğü yakınması ile kabul edilen, inme ön tanısı ile yatırılan 21 yaşındaki erkek hasta nörogörüntüleme bulguları ışığında servikosefalik fibromusküler displazi olarak tanınmıştır. Nadir görülen servikosefalik Fibromusküler displazin genç inmeli hastalarda inmenin bir nedeni olarak akılda tutulmalı ve ayırıcı tanıda dikkate alınmalıdır.
