Clinical case of Bow Hunter's Syndrome

Bow Hunter‘s Syndrome (BHS) is a mechanical compression of the vertebral artery during head rotation, leading to partial disruption or complete interruption of the blood flow of the affected artery, causing vertebrobasilar vascular insufficiency. There are no established precise diagnostic and therapeutic behavioral algorithms in patients with BHS. I present a case of an 80-year-old woman with syncopal symptoms, in which a dynamic stenosis of the dominant left vertebral artery was diagnosed, and the same artery originates from the aortic arch with a separate ostium.
