Vertebral artery injury may occur at the time of cervical fracture or dislocation. Congenital vertebral artery variations, especially a double vertebral artery origin, may be responsible for angiographic findings that mimic vertebral artery dissection. Two cases of cervical spine fracture with ipsilateral double vertebral artery are presented. Conventional cerebral angiography is the easiest and best way to make this diagnosis and to exclude vertebral artery dissection.
椎动脉损伤可能发生在颈椎骨折或脱位时。先天性椎动脉变异,尤其是双椎动脉起源,可能是导致血管造影表现类似椎动脉夹层的原因。本文报告2例伴有同侧双椎动脉的颈椎骨折病例。传统脑血管造影是做出该诊断及排除椎动脉夹层的最简单且最佳方法。
