The anatomy of the vertebral nerve was investigated in humans and in monkeys. The effect of stimulation of the vertebral nerve and the cervical sympathetic trunk in the monkey was studied. The vertebral nerves in man and monkey represent a series of deep grey rami communicantes which form intersegmental neural arcades around the vertebral artery between C7 and C3. Above C3 the vertebral artery is accompanied by direct branches from the C1–3 ventral rami. Electrical stimulation of either the vertebral nerve or the cervical sympathetic trunk had a minimal effect on vertebral blood flow. In contrast, sympathetic stimulation had pronounced effects on carotid flow and resistance. Anatomically and physiologically there are no grounds to support the hypothesis that irritation of the “vertebral nerve” is the pathogenetic mechanism of cervical migraine.

First Bite Syndrome

AbstractInflammatory myofibroblastic tumors (IMTs) in the head and neck region are common, but those with sympathetic trunk involvement are extremely rare. Here we present a case of cervical sympathetic trunk-centered IMT which is also accompanied by ipsilateral carotid artery, internal jugular vein, and vagus nerve involvement. The patient initially complained of an episodic painful swelling on the right side of the neck and underwent surgery. Preoperative and postoperative serum IgG4 level during 3-year follow-up time is within normal limits. Immunohistochemical study of the tumor has also revealed negativity to IgG4. Postoperative first bite syndrome (FBS) was observed. Surgery seems to be first-line therapy in the patient with IgG4-negative IMT.
