Rubral Lateropulsion Due to Vertebral Artery Dissection in a Patient with Klippel-Feil Syndrome
Arch Neurol 61:583-585, Karimi,M.,et al, 2004
See this aricle in Pubmed
Article Abstract
Hypermobility adjacent to fused vertebrae subjects the vertebral artery to increased shear forces. Thus, Klippel-Feil syndrome may be a predisposing factor for vertebral artery dissection. Moreover, to our knowledge, this case represents the second known case of rubral lateropulsion.
