M Matsumura, and K Nojiri, and Y Yumoto

The case of a 49-year-old woman with persistent primitive hypoglossal artery associated with Arnold-Chiari type I malformation is reported. The hypoglossal artery was located on the left side. The left vertebral artery was hypoplastic, the right vertebral artery could not be visualized angiographically. The clinical significance of a persistent primitive hypoglossal artery is discussed.

D001139 Arnold-Chiari Malformation A group of congenital malformations involving the brainstem, cerebellum, upper spinal cord, and surrounding bony structures. Type II is the most common, and features compression of the medulla and cerebellar tonsils into the upper cervical spinal canal and an associated MENINGOMYELOCELE. Type I features similar, but less severe malformations and is without an associated meningomyelocele. Type III has the features of type II with an additional herniation of the entire cerebellum through the bony defect involving the foramen magnum, forming an ENCEPHALOCELE. Type IV is a form a cerebellar hypoplasia. Clinical manifestations of types I-III include TORTICOLLIS; opisthotonus; HEADACHE; VERTIGO; VOCAL CORD PARALYSIS; APNEA; NYSTAGMUS, CONGENITAL; swallowing difficulties; and ATAXIA.
