Abstract

Dopplerographic Assessment of Blood Flow Parameters of Vertebral Arteries in Patients with Cervicogenic Headache Due to Arthrosis and Instability of Atlanto-Axial Junction

Highlights

  • Cervicogenic Headache (CH) is a syndrome characterized by chronic hemicranial pain that is referred to the head from either bony structures or soft tissues of the neck

  • When the head was turned to the side in patients with instability of the atlanto-axial junction, Vs was significantly lower compared to the control group (34.1±4.2cm/s and 43.6±4.5cm/s; Resistance Index (RI) more in the second segment of the Vertebral Artery (VA) (P

  • The leading role in the formation of the central nervous system is played by the irritation of the vegetative plexus of the vertebral arteries [1]

Summary

Introduction

Cervicogenic Headache (CH) is a syndrome characterized by chronic hemicranial pain that is referred to the head from either bony structures or soft tissues of the neck. Cervicogenic Headache (CH) - one of the most common, is due to biomechanical dysfunction of the Cervical Vertebral Motor Segments (CVMS). It accounts for 15-20% of all headaches. The CH, as a rule, suffer from representatives of “sedentary” occupations, as well as those who in the process of work often have to tilt their head or work with the dropped The leading role in the formation of the central nervous system is played by the irritation of the vegetative plexus of the vertebral arteries [1]
