title: [Vertebral artery loop and cervical pain].
abstract: Diagnosis of a vertebral artery loop in the transverse canal, suggested by a CT scan image, is dependent mainly on results of angiography (preferably computer assisted and by the venous route). This lesion is a differential diagnosis of a neuroma, when the cervical intervertebral foramen is enlarged.
