Vertebral artery injuries following chiropractic cervical spine manipulation--case reports.

Four patients undergoing cervical spinal manipulations for nonneurologic diseases and with no previous neurologic signs or symptoms all developed significant neurologic deficits, one fatal, following manipulations of the cervical spine. Both the literature and the authors' series show that a number of patients have a prodrome prior to the onset of neurologic changes. There is no established therapy for the syndrome. Perhaps prevention is the best means of reducing neurologic injury.

Carotid cavernous fistula in pregnancy.

A carotid-cavernous fistula in pregnancy is not rare. Increasing pain and worsening of the proptosis made prompt operative intervention necessary. The fact that other known cerebrovascular lesions lend themselves to surgical attack without undue risk during this time8--11 prompted us to proceed with surgery. There was no adverse effect on the pregnancy, other than premature delivery. Both the mother and child are doing well 4 years after surgery.
