Cervical root compression due to vertebral artery loop
Abstract
A 62 year old man was admitted to hospital with the complaints of paraesthesia and aching in the lateral right arm. Neurological and radiological examination revealed cervical root compression due to vertebral artery loop. This is of interest since such a vascular anomaly is not mentioned in the literature and should be considered by physicians when making a differential diagnosis for spinal compression.
