Abstract
The suboccipital region has complex vascular anatomy, housing the vertebral artery and its branches, spinal nerves, periarterial neural plexus, and venous compartment. The anatomy is convoluted by the plethora of pathologies that can arise within this region, including congenital, vascular, degenerative, neoplastic, and traumatic diseases. We report a pediatric case where anatomical knowledge was critical in management.
