Hemodynamic Differences Between Basilar Artery Fenestration and Normal Vertebrobasilar Artery: A Pilot Study

Conclusions: This pilot study suggested that hemodynamic differences between BAF and normal vertebrobasilar artery across multiple shear flow parameters. The disturbed flow in the BAF may increase the risk of thrombus formation, plaque instability, and subsequent ischemic cerebrovascular events. These should be confirmed by future studies.
