Abstract:
Stenosis or occlusion of vertebral artery origin is one of important reasons of posterior circulation ischemia. Vertebral artery stenting can reduce posterior circulation ischemia in patients with vertebral artery origin stenosis. Restenosis after stenting is an important reason influencing the long-term efficacy.This article reviews treatment approaches of vertebral artery origin stenosis, restenosis after stenting and the related factors.
