DOI: 10.1007/s00276-021-02746-1
Abstract: A rare branching pattern of the aortic arch in a female cadaver is reported. An aberrant right subclavian artery originated from the distal part of the aortic arch and following a retroesophageal course was recognized.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00701-018-3601-1
Abstract: Congenital craniovertebral junction deformities can be associated with an anomalous vertebral artery (VA). At times, the artery crosses the joint posteriorly (i.e., persistent first intersegmental artery) and is at risk during posterior approach. We report… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jocn.2017.03.043
Abstract: The main change of moyamoya disease (MMD) is steno-occlusion at the terminal portion of the bilateral internal carotid arteries (ICAs). Occlusion of distal portions of the bilateral vertebral arteries (VAs) in MMD has never been… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2017.10.143
Abstract: BACKGROUND Anomalies of the vertebral arteries are rare and usually detected incidentally. However, very rarely, they can manifest with clinical symptoms. We describe such a symptomatic case of high cervical spinal cord compression associated with… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2019.10.050
Abstract: Rare anomalous courses of vertebral arteries in the craniovertebral junction may compress the spinal cord causing myelopathy. We report here the severest form of this pathological condition successfully treated with transposition of bilateral vertebral artery… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/joa.13681
Abstract: Understanding how the brain is provided with glucose and oxygen is of particular interest in human evolutionary studies. In addition to the internal carotid arteries, vertebral arteries contribute significantly to the cerebral and cerebellar blood… read more here.

Is the asymmetry between the vertebral arteries related to cerebral dominance?
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences"
DOI: 10.3906/sag-1904-161
Abstract: Background/aim The two vertebral arteries (VAs) are usually unequal in size; the left one is generally larger than the right one. It was hypothesized that the asymmetry results from the need of the dominant cerebral… read more here.
