[The symptoms of a circulatory disorder in the basin of the vertebrobasilar system in osteochondrosis of the cervical spine].
The authors describe the characteristic features of vertebrobasilar insufficiency of circulation and its distress by the ischemic type, mainly in the inferior posterior cerebellar artery, seen in patients with cervical osteochondrosis coupled with atherosclerosis occurring at an elderly age. The patients manifested predominance of cerebellar symptomatology pertaining to the inferior limbs and to the body. That might be accounted for by partial derangement of the fibers of the spinocerebellar bundles in the inferior vermis. The patients' status was characterized by a favourable course and outcome, with the cerebellar symptoms alone being steadily retained.
