The vertebral artery is a major artery of the neck that passes through the cervical vertebrae. There are two vertebral arteries, one on each side, and each branches off from the subclavian artery. They merge to form the single basilar artery at the base of the brain.
Vertebral artery dissection (abbreviated VAD, often vertebral dissection) is a dissection (a flap-like tear) of the inner lining of the vertebral artery, which is located in the neck and supplies blood to the brain.ertebral artery dissection is less common than carotid artery dissection (dissection of the large arteries in the front of the neck). The two conditions combined account for 10â25% of non-hemorrhagic strokes in young and middle-aged people.
