title: [Vertebrobasilar arterial thrombosis secondary to aneurysmatic cysts of the atlas and the epistropheus].
abstract: The Authors report the case of a 54 year old man who died suddenly for bulbar paralysis caused by a vertebrobasilar vascular system thrombosis due to compression by an aneurysmal cyst of the first two cervical vertebra. The diagnosis of bony tumour which they reached on the basis of angiography and t.c., has been confirmed and defined by the autopsy.
