Uncommon Variations and Anomalies of Craniocervical Arteries

Anomalies of craniocervical arteries are of medical and surgical importance. These are more detected after the widespread introduction of cranial angiography and more use of neurointerventional procedures. Here we describe the uncommon variations of craniocervical arteries.
