Bow Hunter’s syndrome combined with ipsilateral vertebral artery dissection/pseudoaneurysm: case study and literature review

Young patients presenting with cryptogenic stroke in the posterior circulation and localised, subtle dissection/pseudoaneurysm of the ipsilateral VA around the atlanto-axial joint should undergo carotid ultrasonography with a neck rotation test or dynamic CT angiography/MR angiography/digital subtraction angiography, if necessary, to rule out/diagnose BHS.
