Abstract

Introduction: Arterial dissections are becoming increasingly common among the causes of cerebrovascular diseases in the
young. The dissections are less common in the vertebrobasilar system than in the carotid artery system. Here we report a case
of vertebral artery dissection diagnosed after sudden neck movements with dizziness and vomiting.
Case Report: A 32-year-old male patient with no significant past medical history presented to our emergency clinic with
dizziness, nausea, and vomiting. Cervical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) angiography revealed an aspect coherent with
dissection in the right extracranial vertebral artery.
Conclusion: Although rare, vertebral artery dissection should always be included in the differential diagnosis of dizziness
