ABSTRACT

This work describes the presence of anatomical variant vertebral artery hypoplasia in 150 brains previously dissected in the School of Medicine of the University of Medical Science (UCIMED). In the present study, we found 4 cases of hypoplasic right vertebral artery, which generates a prevalence of 2.67%, range within expected in the various studies. It also reviews the subject and its clinical significance.
