[Thrombotic lesions of the superior and inferior posterior cerebellar arteries]. / O tromboticheskikh porazheniiakh verkhnei i nizhnei zadnei mozzhechkovykh arterii.

The authors accomplished a clinico-anatomical analysis of 8 personal cases of a rare vascular brain pathology. In 1 case there was a thrombembolism in the basin of fine branches of the right upper cerebellar artery with a focus of softening in the right hemisphere of the cerebellum in 1 case--thrombosis of the right upper cerebellar artery with a focus of softening in the right cerebellar hemisphere, in 5 -- thrombosis of the left lower posterior cerebellar artery with localization of the focus of softening in the left cerebellar hemisphere. One case was with thrombosis of the same vessel with a focus of softening in the right cerebellar hemisphere in the side olive of medulla oblongata.

[Clinical picture and localization of foci of softening in the brain following vertebral artery thrombosis]. / O klinike i lokalizatsii ochagov razmiagcheniia v mozge pri tromboze pozvonochnykh arterii.

The authors conducted a clinico-anatomical analysis of 45 observations with thrombosis of the vertebral arteries. In the majority of cases thrombosis of the vertebral arteries was isolated. In 5 observations it was combined--with thrombosis of the carotid artery (2 cases), with the middle brain artery (2 cases) and with the posterior cerebellum artery (1 case). In one observation thrombosis of the right innominate, subclavian, general carotid and vertebral arteries was diagnosed clinically and angiographically. Thrombosis of the vertebral arteries occurs in the presence of expressed atherosclerotic changes in the brain vessels with acute stenosis.
