maple trees with 1/2 dead central leader -why?

have several maple trees 3-4 years old. this spring the upper 1/2 of the leaf bearing area on 2 of the trees was dead for no apparent reason. Several branches below the problem area developed leaves normally.

I cut off the dead area and the trees are growing well but I'm still wondering what the cause might have been.

anyone? ....
