Management of Cerebral 4-Vessel Disease With Anterior Circulation Symptoms by Stenting Both Vertebral Arteries at the Same Session.

The carotid arteries are the main arteries supplying the anterior circulation, and the vertebral arteries supply blood to the posterior circulation. However, in cases where both carotid arteries are occluded/dysfunctional, all cerebral perfusion remains over the vertebrobasilar system. However, in cases such as this, where both carotid arteries are occluded/dysfunctional, all cerebral perfusion remains over the vertebrobasilar system and may be responsible for anterior circulation strokes. The situation becomes more severe if both vertebral artery critical stenosis is added. Synchronous carotid and vertebral artery revascularization is not recommended in the guidelines for patients with combined carotid and vertebral artery disease. In patients with four-vessel occlusion/stenosis, as in this particular case, the intervention method and priorities are unclear. We achieved a favorable clinical outcome with simultaneous bilateral vertebral artery angioplasty and stenting, a hazardous method that can be a guide as an approach option in similar cases.
