Revisiting the Role of Occipital Artery Resection in Greater Occipital Nerve Decompression
Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 2022Background: Greater occipital nerve surgery has been shown to improve headaches caused by nerve compression. There is a paucity of data, however, specifically regarding the efficacy of concomitant occipital artery resection. To that end, the goal of this study was to compare the efficacy of greater occipital nerve decompression

Arteriovenous aneurysm of the occipital artery
Neuroradiology, 1993We report an unique case of a giant aneurysm of the occipital artery, with a venous connection to the transverse sinus via an emissary vein. Because of this connection, the term arteriovenous aneurysm is used.

An anatomical and radioanatomical study of the intracranial branches of the occipital artery is presented and attempt to systematize the muscular branches of the occipital trunk and its vertebral anastomosis. An embryological hypothesis is presented to explain and memorize all the artrial variations of this area.

Continuation of the ascending cervical artery as the occipital artery in man
Anatomical Science International, 2004We report an elderly male cadaver with unilateral anomalous continuation of the ascending cervical artery as the occipital artery. The ascending cervical artery was enlarged from its origin and supplied segmental branches through the intervertebral foramina.

The Occipital Artery:Amicroanatomical Study
Operative Neurosurgery, 2006Abstract OBJECTIVE: We performed a systematic microanatomical study of the occipital artery (OA) and its branches to describe the course, diameter, and branches of this vessel as well as the presence and pattern of anastomotic channels between the OA and the vertebral artery.

Ruptured Aneurysms of the Occipital Artery Associated with Congenital Occipital Bone Defect
World Neurosurgery, 2017Traumatic aneurysms of the superficial temporal artery have been frequently reported in the literature, whereas traumatic aneurysms of the occipital artery (OA) are extremely rare.A 30-year-old man had been followed at another hospital for meningoencephalocele associated with his congenital occipital bone defect.

The Role of Occipital Artery Resection in the Surgical Treatment of Occipital Migraine Headaches
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2013This study was designed to compare the success of occipital migraine headache surgery with and without occipital artery ligation.The medical charts of 170 occipital migraine headache surgery recipients who fulfilled the study criteria were reviewed. Patients were divided into either the occipital artery resection group (one or both occipital arteries ...

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery
In free flap reconstruction of the occipital region, the occipital artery can be a recipient vessel for vascular anastomosis, but few detailed reports or studies on its role as a recipient vessel are available. The authors report the case of a 74-year-old man in whom the occipital artery was used as the recipient vessel in occipital free tissue ...

Patients who have had microvascular decompression (MVD) surgery often report sensory discomfort around the surgical area. In most cases, injury of the lesser occipital nerve (LON) is responsible for this postoperative complication. This study aimed to explore an effective method to protect the LON and reduce postoperative discomfort.Doppler was used to
