Vertebral artery dissection in two patients with traumatic brain and cervical spine injury was treated in the intensive care
unit. In both cases vertebral artery dissection was suspected solely by the presence of ischemic lesions on the cervical spine
and by magnetic resonance imaging of the brain, performed because of a failure to recover consciousness. In the intensive
care unit patients with head and neck trauma, symptoms of posterior circulation ischemia due to traumatic vertebral artery
dissection, often overlap with those with traumatic brain injury. A high level of suspicion for vertebral artery dissection
has to be maintained in order to prompt further investigation in to these cases. 相似文献

Two cases of the association of Fallot's tetralogy and coarctation of the aorta are reported. In both cases there was a right aortic arch. In addition, the second case had a cervical aorta and a left subclavian artery isolated from the aorta and vascularised by the left vertebral artery. The two children underwent complete repair: the first patient had a Waterston shunt followed by repair of the Fallot's tetralogy, followed by repair of the coarctation; the second patient first had a Gore-tex tube inserted from the ascending to the descending aorta and then underwent repair of the Fallot's tetralogy. The association of a coarctation with an obstructive lesion of the right heart is very rare; only two cases have previously been reported: one Fallot's tetralogy and one tricuspid atresia with pulmonary stenosis. Both cases also had a right aortic arch. This seems to go against the haemodynamic theory of coarctation: blood flow in the ascending aorta increases while flow in the pulmonary artery decreases. Coarctation could be caused by a partial involution of the terminal segment of the right primitive dorsal aorta as proposed in cases of coarctation with a right sided aortic arch. The second case also presented two uncommon features: a cervical aortic arch and a left subclavian artery isolated from the aorta. 相似文献

We report an uncommon case of positional occlusion of the vertebral artery associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Plain radiography showed reducible atlantoaxial subluxation, and dynamic vertebral arteriography demonstrated positional occlusion of the left vertebral artery. The patient was treated with C1-2 posterior fusion and has since experienced no recurrent symptoms. Insufficiency of the vertebrobasilar artery is a relatively uncommon complication with cervical lesions in RA patients. However, when RA patients manifest recurrent cerebral and cerebellar symptoms, this condition should be kept in mind and actions taken to avoid further irreversible cerebral damage. Recommended imaging methods include vertebral dynamic lateral plain radiography of the cervical spine and vertebral arteriography at multiple cervical positions. 相似文献

Rheumatoid arthritis and metastatic cancer occur commonly in the elderly, and may cause neck pain. Rheumatoid arthritis may produce cervical radiculopathy and myelopathy resulting from vertebral body subluxation, although radiological manifestations of subluxation are much more common than neurological dysfunction. Cervical spinal cord compression is a neurological emergency and may produce cervical radiculopathy as well as myelopathy. Careful neurological and radiological assessments are required to minimize pain and preserve neurological function in elderly patients suffering from neck pain complicating rheumatoid arthritis or cervical spinal metastasis. 相似文献

Since the development of the technique of revascularizing the vertebral artery in its transversal and suboccipital portions, 22 revascularisation procedures of the distal vertebral artery (above C2) have been carried out in 21 patients. The earliest cases have been followed up for more than 4 years and the technique has proved to be reliable, both from the clinical and anatomical points of view. The indications were based on restoration of the vertebral axis compromised by major lesions (stenosis: 2 cases, occlusion: 14 cases) of both vertebral arteries (13 cases) or of the dominant vertebral artery in symptomatic patients (3 cases). Surgery was also offered to preserve a vascular axis which had to be sacrificed for the treatment of potentially embolic disease (aneurysm or dissection: 3 cases) or hypervascular lesions (arteriovenous malformation, tumour: 2 cases). However, the indications for distal cervical vertebral artery revascularization should be carefully considered as it is impossible to evaluate the long-term tolerance of major vertebral arterial lesions. 相似文献

AIM: To demonstrate that ultrasound screening of diabetic patients presenting with no cerebrovascular symptoms for evaluation of atheroma of the cervical arteries can be limited to the carotid arteries. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the results of cervical artery ultrasound imaging of diabetic patients with no cerebrovascular symptoms. This diabetic population was divided into two subpopulations according to whether or not the vertebral and subclavian artery findings were normal or abnormal. RESULTS: Of the 760 patients who fulfilled the criteria for study inclusion, the ultrasound imaging findings of the vertebral and subclavian arteries were normal in 712 cases. Review of the files of the 48 remaining patients showed that findings for either the vertebral or subclavian arteries did not lead to any changes in patient management because of associated risk factors, carotid atheroma or peripheral arterial disease. CONCLUSION: A vascular risk evaluation in diabetic patients could include ultrasound imaging assessment for cervical artery atheroma and our data suggest that such an evaluation could be focused solely on the carotid arteries. 相似文献

Vertebral artery dissections (VAD) are known to occur as a result of mechanical manipulations of the cervical region, traumatic injury, iatrogenic injury and are also known to arise spontaneously. We report a case of vertebral artery dissection following vertebral artery cannulation during a central line placement and review the literature. The patient underwent intravascular catheter placement that subsequently demonstrated arterial blood. Duplex ultrasound and computed tomographic (CT) scan confirmed vertebral artery cannulation. The catheter was removed at the bedside with pressure, and a subsequent duplex ultrasound scan revealed a vertebral artery dissection. There were no neurological sequelae. The patient was successfully anticoagulated with warfarin but died from unrelated complications. This case report describes the rare iatrogenic event of VAD and reviews its etiology, diagnosis, complications, and management. 相似文献

Cervical myelopathy is found fairly often with rheumatoid arthritis. It is one of the worst complications of the disease and can lead to tetraplegia or even to sudden death. However, when we consider the high incidence of involvement of the cervical spine in rheumatoid arthritis, the number of cases of cervical myelopathy, even of slight degree, is not very high. We have used magnetic resonance to identify the condition of the cervical structures, especially the nerve structures, in 15 patients with rheumatoid arthritis, with involvement of the cervical articulations but without neurological symptoms. We found anterior compression of the spinal cord caused by the odontoid process of the epistropheus in 13 cases. One case had lateral deviation of the spinal cord and another had compression of a vertebral artery. In another the lumen of the nasopharynx was decreased and one had posterior compression of the spinal cord by the posterior arch of the atlas. Magnetic resonance also makes it possible to detect a rheumatoid pannus on the affected articulations. We conclude that magnetic resonance is at present a useful instrument for evaluation of the presence of cervical myelopathy in rheumatoid arthritis patients, to prevent more serious complications. 相似文献

Effect of cervical spondylosis on vertebral arterial flow and its association with vertigo 总被引:4,自引:1,他引:3
The aim in this study was to evaluate the effect of cervical spondylosis on vertebral arterial flow. The flow changes on Doppler
measurements in patients with vertigo were also assessed. Ninety-one patients with different grades of degeneration on disks
and apophysis were evaluated. The severity of degeneration was determined by two observers, and the effect of cervical degeneration
on vertebral arterial flow was assessed. The relation between vertigo and changes in Doppler measurements of vertebral artery
in neck and cranium was analyzed. As total degeneration increases, the flow volume decreases in the right vertebral artery
but increases in the left. No other correlation between degeneration scores, cervical curve measurements, and Doppler measurements
was noted. According to the total degeneration scores, no differences were noted between the patients with and without vertigo.
In patients with vertigo, the resistive index was higher in the neck before the vertebral foramina. In correlations of the
ratios of the intra/extracranial vertebral artery with Doppler measurements, the only change was observed in the left flow
volume. The severity of degeneration in disks and apophysis does not cause a considerable change in vertebral arterial flow,
and also no significant finding on Doppler measurements were noted in patients with vertigo.

A case of degenerative spondylopathy in chondrocalcinosis (pseudospondylo-discitis) is presented. The incidence of vertebral involvement in chondrocalcinosis reported in the literature is reviewed. In approximately 4-10% of all cases of chondrocalcinosis the vertebral column is involved as well. Especially in elderly patients, a differential diagnosis based on clinical, radiological and laboratory findings must include infectious spondylodiscitis. In the presence of additional degenerative spondylolisthesis, as well as radiculopathy and/or symptoms of spinal stenosis, surgery is often performed. However, there are cases reported in which improvement occurs after spontaneous vertebral fusion without surgical intervention. If any vertebral change is detected that is suggestive of chondrocalcinosis, even in asymptomatic patients, it is recommended to obtain radiographs of other joints, for example, the knee and wrist, which are frequently also involved in chondrocalcinosis. 相似文献

Anomalies of the vertebral arteries are uncommon, but important to recognize in the diagnosis and catheter based evaluation and treatment of patients suffering cerebrovascular disease. This article illustrates our experience with such anomalies. These include the vertebral artery arising as the fourth and most distal branch of the aortic arch, as a right subclavian artery branch arising distal to the right thyrocervical trunk, as a right common carotid artery branch in a patient with an aberrant right subclavian artery, and a case of left vertebral artery proximal duplication, with both aortic and left subclavian vertebral arteries present in the same patient; the latter join to form a single distal cervical vertebral artery. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES--To study the prevalence of degenerative changes in the arteries supplying the cervicobrachial region, and their relation to cervical disc degeneration. METHODS--Fifty postmortem aortic arch angiographies were evaluated for occlusions and variations in the diameter of the vertebral arteries and thyro- and costocervical trunks, as well as for tortuosity, average diameter and the highest cervical level to which the ascending cervical artery, an upward continuation of the thyrocervical trunk, and the deep cervical artery, an upward continuation of the costocervical trunk, ascended. RESULTS--Localised segmental narrowings, usually situated close to the ostia of the arteries, were common, whereas total occlusions were rare. Thirty (60%) of the subjects showed a segmental narrowing at least in one of the six arteries analysed, while only two (4%) showed an occluded artery, which in both the cases was the thyrocervical trunk. Narrowings were most common in vertebral arteries, followed by costocervical and thyrocervical trunks. Segmental narrowings, as well as general tortuosity of the arteries, increased with age. It was also found that ascending and deep cervical arteries did not run as high up in the posterior neck muscles in older people as in younger ones. Twenty three subjects with marked cervical disc degeneration showed on average 2.3 arteries with segmental narrowings, while the corresponding figure for twenty seven subjects without disc degeneration was 0.6. Both the segmental narrowings and the disc degeneration, however, were strongly associated with age, and thus the causality between the former two remained unclear. CONCLUSION--The study showed that degenerative changes are common in the arteries supplying the cervicobrachial area, indicating that impaired blood flow might play a part in some cervicobrachial disorders. 相似文献

The extracranial segment of the vertebral artery is well protected, and the rate of occurrence of extracranial vertebral aneurysms is very low. We describe the case of a 40-year-old woman who presented with a large aneurysm of the left vertebral artery in the angiographic absence of a right vertebral artery. Her medical history included a motorcycle accident at the age of 20, at which time a neck sprain had been diagnosed. Computed tomography of the chest and neck revealed a 6- x 4-cm aneurysm with mural thrombus in the left thoracic outlet and in the first portion of the left vertebral artery before the entrance of the transverse foramen of the 6th cervical vertebra. Angiography of the arch vessels confirmed both the presence of an aneurysm of the left vertebral artery and the absence of a right vertebral artery. Due to the lack of contralateral vertebral flow, we planned to perform a graft interposition under deep hypothermic circulatory arrest, for cerebral protection. Unfortunately, the patient refused the operation and was lost to follow-up. To our knowledge, there has been no previous report of an extracranial vertebral artery aneurysm in the absence of a contralateral vertebral artery. We believe that deep hypothermic circulatory arrest with graft interposition is the best treatment strategy, although we did not, in this case, have opportunity to treat the patient. 相似文献

椎动脉夹层是引起后循环青年卒中重要的病因,其单侧病变多见,且大多患者有明确的外伤史,双侧自发性椎动脉夹层少见.既往研究表明,颅外段椎动脉夹层给予抗血小板聚集和抗凝治疗均有效,且在监测手段上,高分辨率MRI对动脉管壁结构显示优于其他检查手段,故在椎动脉夹层的诊治及随访方面均有明显优势.该研究报道了1例经高分辨率MRI确诊及连续追踪的双侧椎动脉颅外段自发性夹层的罕见案例,该例患者源于一侧起病,虽经双重抗血小板聚集治疗但对侧出现了再发夹层,该研究结合文献对其诊治特征进行了分析. 相似文献
