Vertebrobasilar insufficiency. A review.

J I Ausman, C E Shrontz, J E Pearce

    Archives of Neurology
    |August 1, 1985
    PubMed
    Summary

    Clinical examination alone rarely localizes posterior circulation vascular lesions causing vertebrobasilar insufficiency. Multiple factors cause these symptoms, necessitating comprehensive angiography for diagnosis.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Vascular Surgery
    • Diagnostic Imaging

    Background:

    • Vertebrobasilar insufficiency (VBI) symptoms have diverse etiologies.
    • Accurate localization of posterior circulation vascular pathology is challenging via clinical exam alone.

    Observation:

    • Stenotic and occlusive lesions occur throughout the vertebrobasilar system.
    • Current diagnostic standards mandate four-vessel cerebral angiography for complete investigation.

    Findings:

    • No single medical or surgical therapy has demonstrated unequivocal benefit for VBI.
    • Evolving surgical techniques offer potential alternative treatment strategies for posterior circulation disease.

    Implications:

    • Improved diagnostic accuracy for VBI is needed.
    • Further research into effective VBI treatments, including novel surgical interventions, is warranted.
