Tough Q. A, B and E are not typical presentations of these diseases, so I ruled them out. Vertebral basilar insufficiency causes:
- nystagmus
- Limb ataxia
- Truncal ataxia (falling to the side of the lesion)
- Contralateral perception of pain and temperature perception
- Ipsilateral limb and trunk numbness, and loss of taste
- Visual field deficits.
About carotid thrombosis I dont´know much, except that it presents as TIA´s and rare in children, but since C doesn´t quite fit I chose D.
