The observation of endovascular treatment of a 34-year-old woman with bilateral dissection lesions of vertebral arteries in V4-segments with occlusion of the right vertebral artery and right posterior inferior cerebellar artery, severe stenosis of the left vertebral artery caused by chiropractic manipulation in the neck region is described. There are intensive staticolocomotor and dynamic coordinating insufficiency, severe neck pain, headache, severe dizziness, Wallenberg syndrome, moderate central tetraparesis. MRI of the brain on the DWI Isotropic identified the hyperintensive round-shaped foci in the right hemisphere of the cerebellum, in the right side of cerebellum worm, in the right side of the medulla oblongata and in the right side of the pons (DWI BSS 3). Selective cerebral angiography was performed an hour after the clinic manifestation. Simultaneously, balloon angioplasty of severe dissection stenosis was performed in the V4-segment of the left vertebral artery by the compliant balloon-catheter Scepter C. In 18 hours from the development of vertebral artery dissection, self-expending stent LVIS was implanted into the left vertebral artery in the zone of dissection lesion. On the control angiograms: the left vertebral artery patency is restored without stenosis all along. The stent is fully opened. A second contrast contour is determined outside the stent in the dissection zone. All the arteries of the vertebrobasilar basin above the vertebrobasilar junction are passable. The V4-segment of the right vertebral artery is contrasted through the vertebrobilar junction. There was a rapid regression of neurological symptoms in the postoperative period. Only mild hypoesthesia on the right side in the outer Sölder’s zone, light coordination disorders on the right were remained. Control selective cerebral angiography revealed recanalization of the right vertebral artery and the right posterior cerebellar artery. But distal basin of the right posterior cerebellar artery is very poorly. The left vertebral artery is passable all over, but in the place of the former dissection, two equivalent arterial «sleeves» were formed according to the fenestration type. One «sleeve» is formed by a stent, the other — outside. All arteries of the vertebrobasilar basin are contrasted. The mild hemihepesthesia on the right side of the face in the outer Sölder’s zone, light coordination disorders on the right are remained. Implantation of the self-expanding stent LVIS allowed to restore the dominant vertebral artery and restrict ischemic brain damage in the brain stem and cerebellum in a patient with a both vertebral arteries dissection lesion caused by chiropractic neck manipulations.

Variations of the branches of aortic arch are due to alteration in the development of certain branchial arch arteries during embryonic period. Knowledge of these variations is important during aortic instrumentation, thoracic, and neck surgeries. In the present study we observed these variations in fifty-two cadavers from Indian populations. In thirty-three (63.5%) cadavers, the aortic arch showed classical branching pattern which includes brachiocephalic trunk, left common carotid artery, and left subclavian artery. In nineteen (36.5%) cadavers it showed variations in the branching pattern, which include the two branches, namely, left subclavian artery and a common trunk in 19.2% cases, four branches, namely, brachiocephalic trunk, left common carotid artery, left vertebral artery, and left subclavian artery in 15.3% cases, and the three branches, namely, common trunk, left vertebral artery, and left subclavian artery in 1.9% cases.

We report the case of a 36 year-old woman who presented occlusion of a basilar artery fusiform aneurysm (FA) associated with pontine infarction, and two episodes of subarachnoid hemorrhage possibly due to arterial dissection. She also had asymptomatic FAs in the right middle cerebral and left internal carotid arteries. Over 5 years, lesions suggestive of fibromuscular dysplasia in the right vertebral artery and occlusion of the left vertebral artery were observed. This combination of lesions emphasizes the possibility of a common pathogenetic mechanism causing different degrees of media disruption in cervicocranial arteries.
