    Journal: J Neurosurg; 1993 Aug; 79(2):283-5. PubMed ID: 8331414.
    Abstract:
    The authors report the case of a 59-year-old woman with progressive neck and arm pain that initially appeared in the neck and later extended to the shoulder and upper extremity. This pain was caused by compression of the cervical cord between the atlas and axis by the vertebral artery, and disappeared promptly following microvascular decompression.
