Abstract
Vertigo can be the first manifestation of vertebrobasilar ischaemia or brai nstem and cerebellar stroke. Chronic isolated vertigo may pose a diagnostic dilemma. We report the case of a patient who presented with chronic isolat ed vertigo, and highlight the clinical use of magnetic resonance imaging an d angiography in his management.
