The vertebral artery: A review of anatomical, histopathological and functional factors influencing blood flow to the hindbrain

, 2005
An uncompromised blood flow to the brain is essential for normal neurological function. If the blood supply to the hindbrain, via the paired vertebral arteries, is reduced sufficiently, signs and symptoms of vertebrobasilar ischaemia may result.

Dissecting the dissection laboratory: Elements for designing a human anatomy laboratory

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The human anatomy dissection laboratory is a critical component of anatomical and medical education. Development, maintenance, and stocking of these laboratory spaces have unique demands, with all of the challenges in running a laboratory with Biosafety Laboratory Level 2 (BSL‐2) classification, housing a large volume of tissues saturated with

Thoracic endovascular aortic repair in a case of grade III blunt aortic injury with aberrant vertebral artery origin

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2019
Aberrant origin of the left vertebral artery (LVA) can pose a challenge during thoracic endovascular aortic repair. We encountered such a patient who was involved in a motor vehicle accident in whom computed tomography angiography revealed a grade IIIB ...

The hows and whys—A new teaching model for anatomy learning supported by customized 3D printed models

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The advent of three‐dimensional (3D) printing technology has enabled educators to design customized 3D printed models (3DPMs), but the current literature shows conflicting evidence regarding the impact of 3DPMs on students' knowledge acquisition.

An investigation of a sympathetic innervation of the vertebral artery in primates: is there a neurogenic substrate for vasoconstriction?

European Journal of Histochemistry, 2009
Vasoconstriction of the vertebral artery may be neurogenic in origin. Although the existence of a perivascular sympathetic plexus of the vertebral artery is not in doubt, no method used to date has conclusively demonstrated a direct sympathetic ...

Bilateral mechanical rotational vertebral artery occlusion [PDF]

, 2013
Rotational vertebral artery occlusion, or bow hunter's stroke, is reversible, positional symptomatic vertebrobasilar ischemia. The typical mechanism of action is obstruction of a dominant vertebral artery with contralateral head rotation in the setting ...

Photogrammetric Reconstruction of 3D Human Anatomical Structures and Augmented Reality via Smartphone Technology

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Limited access to cadavers necessitates the availability of digital resources for anatomy education. Smartphone‐based photogrammetry offers a promising solution for creating three‐dimensional (3D) and augmented reality (AR) models. This study compared two mobile photogrammetry applications (Qlone and Polycam) that have been used in modern ...

Vertebral Artery Dissection

BMJ Case Reports
Vertebral artery dissections are a rare pathology that carries a high risk of stroke in a younger population. They may be caused by minor mechanisms and the index of suspicion should be high. Treatment with anticoagulation or antiplatelets should follow if no surgical management is indicated. We describe a case of a female in her 30s who
