Abstract:
It is customary that the dizziness related to cerebral perfusion might be caused by insufficient posterior circulation. The occurrence and nature of dizziness originating from anterior circulation has not been well-known. Here, we report a chronic dizzy woman presenting with severe internal carotid artery stenosis, which improved after carotid artery stenting.
