Resum

A review is carried out on the pathology of the vertebral artery, assessing the repercussions that its partial or total occlusion develops. The symptoms that cause this type of pathology are analyzed at the same time as the diagnostic means for detecting the occlusive lesion are evaluated. The different strategies and therapeutic procedures in patients with this pathology are discussed and the different data provided in the bibliography and corresponding to the most important studies that have been carried out are valued. This type of condition is shown as a pathology with difficulties in its detection and with highly debatable surgical therapeutic indications when applied with not very clear scientific evidence of the relevance of its performance.
