Cervical spondylolisthesis may cause insufficient blood supply to the brain, but it is not absolute. If cervical spondylolisthesis leads to vertebral artery-type cervical spondylosis, sympathetic cervical spondylosis and other diseases, the symptoms related to insufficient blood supply to the brain may appear.
1. Vertebral artery-type cervical spondylosis: when the cervical spine of the hook vertebral joint osteophytes, can cause the vertebral artery bony pressure and cause the vertebral artery blood supply is limited, which leads to insufficient blood supply to the brain, and dizziness, headache and other symptoms.
2. Sympathetic cervical spondylosis: When cervical vertebral osteophytes stimulate the sympathetic nerves in the neck, excitation can occur, such as dizziness, headache, increased blood pressure and so on.
Patients with cervical vertebral osteophytes are recommended to have regular follow-up.
