Positional transient loss of consciousness and hemispheric deficits in the setting of severe four-vessel extracranial cerebrovascular disease

open access: yesJournal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2019
Carotid artery stenosis typically causes hemispheric neurologic effects by atheroembolism. Nonhemispheric symptoms, such as syncope, are generally not attributable to extracranial carotid disease.

A Loop That Matters—An Unusual Case of Bow Hunter’s Syndrome

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2022
Bow Hunter’s syndrome (BHS), also known as rotational vertebral artery occlusion (VAO), is a rare entity in which vertebral artery is reversibly compressed due to rotation or extension of the head, causing vertebrobasilar insufficiency.

Stridor in Bilateral Medial Medullary Infarction: A Case Report, Literature Review, and Pathophysiologic Insights Into a Rare Presentation of an Uncommon Stroke

open access: yesCase Reports in Neurological Medicine, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Upper airway obstruction secondary to bilateral vocal cord paralysis is not a known classic presentation of bilateral medial medullary infarction (BMMI). This may potentially confound the diagnostic approach, particularly when coexisting with bulbar symptoms and quadriplegia.

Markers of Giant Cell Arteritis in Patients Presenting With Ischemic Stroke: A Scoping Review

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neurology, Volume 32, Issue 12, December 2025.
Giant cell arteritis should be considered in patients aged ≥ 50 years presenting with vertebrobasilar ischemic events, multifocal infarcts affecting both vertebrobasilar and carotid territories, or recurrent ischemic events despite optimal secondary prevention.

Imaging Characteristics of Persistent Carotid‐Vertebrobasilar Anastomoses Detected by Ultrasound

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasound in Medicine, Volume 44, Issue 11, Page 2157-2169, November 2025.
In this case series, we aimed to evaluate the ultrasonic characteristics of 35 patients with persistent carotid‐vertebrobasilar anastomoses (PCVBA), a rare variant between the anterior and posterior cerebral circulation. Ultrasound detected seven (30.4%, 7/23) primitive trigeminal arteries (PTA), eight (100%, 8/8) primitive hypoglossal arteries (PHA ...

Circumferential Aneurysm Wall Enhancement Predicts Recanalization After Stent‐Assisted Coiling in Small Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2025.
Circumferential aneurysm wall enhancement (CAWE) on high‐resolution vessel wall imaging can predict recanalization in small unruptured intracranial aneurysms following coiling with or without stent assistance. A scoring‐based prediction model has been developed to evaluate the risk of recanalization, incorporating factors of aneurysm size, CAWE ...

Juvenile Bow Hunter's Stroke without Hemodynamic Changes

open access: yesClinical Medicine Insights: Case Reports, 2010
Bow hunter's stroke (BHS) is a cerebrovascular disease caused by occlusion of the vertebral artery (VA) on head rotation. BHS is generally associated with hemodynamic changes, often leading to vertebrobasilar insufficiency symptoms, such as vertigo and ...
