Vertebrobasilar Dolichoectasia Diagnosed by Magnetic Resonance Angiography and Risk of Stroke and Death:A Cohort Study
JNNP 75:22-26, Ubogu,E.E.&Zaidat,O.O., 2004
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
This study suggests that VBD may be an independent risk factor for stroke, VBD cases had an increased likelihood for PCD, all cause mortality, and reduced cumulative survival independent of other vascular risk factors in this cohort. Larger population based prospective studies are required to verify these results.
