dc.description.abstractOBJECTIVES: To study the surgical anatomy of the vertebral artery at the craniocervical junction and its related structures defining reliable landmarks for its safe exposure. DESIGN: Ten sides of 5 fresh cadavers were dissected using the lateral approach to the craniocervical junction. RESULTS: Experience gained in studying the anatomic details of the vertebral artery at the craniocervical junction in cadavers from its exit at the transverse foramen of the second cervical vertebra to the vertebrobasilar junction provided the initial background for us to use the lateral approaches to the skull base to safely manage 4 cases with pathology reaching the close vicinity of vertebral artery at the craniocervical junction. CONCLUSION: Thorough knowledge of the anatomy of the vertebral artery is mandatory before attempting surgery at the craniocervical junction. There are reliable landmarks that, when followed, could facilitate safe exposure and identification of the artery. (c) 2005 American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery Foundation, Inc.
