Endovascular Treatment of Traumatic Transection of the Vertebral Artery Caused by Penetrating Injury to the Oropharynx in a Pediatric Patient.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Pediatric isolated penetrating traumatic vertebral artery injuries require urgent multidisciplinary management as they may lead to potentially fatal posterior circulation ischemia. CASE DESCRIPTION:We present a 19-month-old patient with an isolated penetrating vertebral artery injuries at the V2 segment of the right vertebral artery and report our strategy for her endovascular treatment which involved simultaneous coil embolization and foreign body removal. CONCLUSION:Endovascular treatment can be considered first line treatment of oral penetrating injuries to the vertebral artery, where the penetrating object has an anterior to posterior trajectory.
