  • Title: Rotational occlusion of the vertebral artery at the atlantoaxial joint: is it truly physiological?
    Author: Takahashi I, Kaneko S, Asaoka K, Harada T.
    Journal: Neuroradiology; 1994 May; 36(4):273-5. PubMed ID: 8065569.
    Abstract:
    We present a patient with vertebrobasilar insufficiency, with vertigo and horizontal nystagmus, induced by turning the head to the right. Angiography demonstrated transient occlusion of the left vertebral artery at the atlantoaxial joint during rotation of the head. The pathogenesis and angiographic findings are discussed.
