[Cervical spine injuries and compression of the vertebral artery (author's transl)]. 1978

I Vlajic, and P Distelmaier

Six patients were angiographically examined. A compression of the cerebral artery was verified angiographically only in one patient with a severe dislocation of the cervical spine. Only severe trauma to the cervical spine seems to involve the vertebral arteries. The history of this patient with a verified compression of the vertebral artery is described. It is characterised by primary discrete neurological symptoms gradually getting worse. The cause and resulting consequences are discussed.
