• Vertebral artery
• Stump embolism
• Anticoagulation
• Ischemic stroke

We describe three patients who presented with posterior circulation ischemic strokes after vertebral artery occlusion. These patients were successfully treated with anticoagulation therapy without surgical or endovascular treatment.
