Abstract

The anatomy of vertebrobasilar perforators has been widely studied in human cadavers, with most reports found in the neurosurgical literature. These arterial perforators are extremely hard to visualize consistently with traditional two-dimensional digital subtraction angiography, but are reliably visible with cross sectional cone beam CT techniques. A clear understanding of this specific neurovascular anatomy and pathology is essential for informed treatment decisions. This review analyzes the anatomy of vertebrobasilar perforators with a focus on practical implications for aneurysm treatment, particularly flow diversion.
