Posterior circulation cerebral bypasses often show higher risks and lower patency. Only few reports discussed occipital artery (OA)-vertebral artery (VA) bypasses. We present our illustrative cases to...
A single-center retrospective review was conducted to include all institutional cases of OA-VA bypass, discussing the technique and outcomes....
Four institutional cases undergoing a total of 5 bypasses were evaluated, including 3 males and 1 female, with median age of 65 years (range, 62-73). All patients had vertebrobasilar insufficiency (VB...
OA-VA bypass is a challenging yet effective strategy in selected patients with VBI. Current literature lacks unique definitions of surgical indications and techniques, which we addressed in our series...
Variations in the origins and courses of the vertebral arteries are relatively rare but may be clinically meaningful. We hypothesize a relationship between variant origins of the vertebral arteries an...
In this retrospective study of CT angiograms, we document the frequency and types of vertebral artery variants, correlating origins with levels of entry to the foramina transversaria....
Vertebral artery variants were observed in 18.7% of a sample of 460 CT angiograms of the neck. Right-sided variants were less common than left (44.2% versus 68.6%, with 12.8% bilateral) and more commo...
Vertebral artery variants follow certain well-defined patterns that correlate with the embryology of the aortic arch and great vessels....
To compare the safety and efficacy of stenting with drug-eluting stent (DES), stenting with bare mental stent (BMS), and angioplasty alone with drug-coated balloon (DCB) in patients with symptomatic v...
We performed a retrospective analysis of consecutive patients with symptomatic VAOS who underwent endovascular treatment between December 2018 and November 2021 at our institution. The main outcome co...
A total of 46 patients were included: 29 were stented with DES, 12 were stented with BMS, and 5 received angioplasty alone with DCB. Technical success was achieved in 100%, 100%, and 60%, respectively...
In patients with symptomatic VAOS who did not respond to aggressive medical management, stenting with DES shows superiority in the lowering the restenosis rate compared with stenting with BMS. Angiopl...
This retrospective case report describes a rare presentation of VBI in a young male patient....
Share a rare cause of VBI in a young patient....
The patient presented with recurrent episodes of dizziness and a history of several cerebellar infarcts. Imaging revealed the right vertebral artery was being mechanically compressed by the right supe...
Intraoperative angiography revealed a right vertebral artery without compression during mouth opening....
Clinicians should consider the thyroid cartilage as a potential source of recurrent VBI due to mechanical compression of the VA....
Resection of the causative portion of the thyroid cartilage resolved the compression in this case, and should be employed in similar cases. Laryngoscope, 133:1214-1217, 2023....
Since the medullary arteries are of a great neurologic and neurosurgical significance, the aim was to perform a detailed microanatomic study of these vessels, as well as of the medullary infarctions i...
The arteries of 26 halves of the brain stem were injected with India ink and gelatin, microdissected and measured with an ocular micrometer. Neurologic and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination...
The perforating medullary arteries, averaging 6.7 in number and 0.26 mm in diameter, most often originated from the anterior spinal artery (ASA), and rarely from the vertebral (VA) (38.5%) and the bas...
The obtained anatomic data, which can explain the medullary infarctions symptomatology, are also important in order to avoid damage to the medullary arteries during neurosurgical and neuroradiologic i...
The established effectiveness of mechanical thrombectomy using a stent retriever or aspiration catheter for emergent large-vessel occlusion caused by cardiogenic embolic stroke is widely recognized. H...
The right and left vertebral arteries are the first branches of the ipsilateral subclavian arteries. However, in the presence of anatomical variation due to complex embryogenesis, the vertebral artery...
To assess clinical outcomes of ruptured vertebral artery dissecting aneurysms, focusing on comparing parent artery occlusion (PAO) with stent-assisted treatments, and to identify risk factors for unfa...
This retrospective review included 36 ruptured vertebral artery dissecting aneurysms treated between February 2009 and April 2020. Treatment modalities included PAO without stent and stent-assisted tr...
Patients were treated with PAO only (24, 66.7%), PAO with PICA stenting (4, 11.1%), and PAO with stent-assisted coiling (8, 22.2%). There were only fusiform aneurysms with PICA involvement in the PAO ...
Unfavorable clinical outcomes were significantly related to old age and poor Hunt-Hess grade. There were no significant differences between treatment groups in clinical outcomes or ischemic complicati...
Direct surgery is an important option to treat vertebral artery (VA) stenosis....
A patient with symptomatic stenosis at the origin of the right VA underwent transposition of the right VA to the common carotid artery (CCA). Using the sternocleidomastoid sparing approach, the VA was...
This approach, consisting of securing the proximal VA and then following it to its distal end, not only preserves the sternocleidomastoid muscle but also protects the sympathetic chains and thoracic d...
An unusual unilateral origin and course of the prevertebral part of the right vertebral artery and anomalous course of the right inferior thyroid artery was observed during dissection of the neck of a...
An accidental finding in the cadaver within the anatomical dissection was assessed....
The right vertebral artery originated a nonstandard from brachiocephalic trunk and travelled in the anterior cervical region, along the longus colli muscle in front of the transverse processes from C7...
Variation in the vertebral artery and inferior thyroid artery alone have been reported, but a combined variation is rare. The anatomical information from this study will be useful during dissection, a...
