Vertebral Artery Loop Formation Depicted on Oblique Sagittal MR Imaging: A Case Report
Vertebral artery loop formation is an anatomic variation that possibly causes cervical nerve root compression, leading to cervical radiculopathy. A few cases of vertebral artery loop formation depicted with conventional sagittal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have been reported, but cases of verte...

| Summary: | Vertebral artery loop formation is an anatomic variation that possibly causes cervical nerve root compression, leading to cervical radiculopathy. A few cases of vertebral artery loop formation depicted with conventional sagittal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have been reported, but cases of vertebral artery loop formation depicted with oblique sagittal MRI have been less frequently reported. We present a case of vertebral artery loop formation depicted on oblique sagittal MRI. |
