Abstract A case of a 47-year-old man with weakness secondary to ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament is presented. During removal of the ossified ligament, the patient's dominant right vertebral artery was injured. Although the bleeding from this artery was controlled intraoperatively, the patient developed an expanding cervical hematoma on the 3rd postoperative day. An angiogram demonstrated a large pseudoaneurysm of the right vertebral artery. The patient was taken back to the operating room where the cervical hematoma was removed, and direct repair of the pseudoaneurysm of the vertebral artery was performed. The previously reported cases of pseudoaneurysms of the extracranial vertebral artery are reviewed. We advocate the use of direct vascular repair as the treatment of choice in these lesions.

Summary: A 49-year-old man was diagnosed with pre-fibrotic myelofibrosis after acute left lower-limb ischemia requiring amputation and portal vein thrombosis. After surgery he developed heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) with venous thromboembolism, successfully treated with argatroban followed by dabigatran. Our systematic review of the literature supports the use of dabigatran for suspected HIT.
