Abstract
Vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia (VBD) is an arteriopathy resulting in pathological elongation, twisting, and dilatation of the vertebrobasilar artery. Dolichoectasia mostly occurs in the posterior cerebral circulation, but it can also occur in the anterior cerebral circulation; the basilar artery is involved in >80% of cases. As the basilar artery gives off several branches at large angles, and the shearing forces are greater at the branching points, VBD can occur [1,2]. CASE REPORT
