Dissecting hematoma of the cervical vertebral artery. Case report

S J Goldstein. J Neurosurg. 1982 Mar.

Abstract

A 31-year-old woman developed a sudden onset of vertebrobasilar ischemia while exercising. Cerebral arteriography revealed a dissecting hematoma of the cervical portion of the dominant vertebral artery. Both the neurological deficits and the intramural hematoma of vertebral artery resolved with conservative therapy alone.
