Abstract
Scapular Pain Caused By an Anomalous Vertebral Artery
A 39-year-old woman presented to my office with neck pain after a motor vehicle accident. The neck pain described radiated into her left periscapular region, consistent with a c4 dermatome. The patient did not demonstrate weakness or numbness during the physical examination and is an otherwise healthy middle-aged female.
