Vertebral artery fenestration is a rare vascular anomaly. It most commonly occurs in extracranial segments of the vertebral artery. This congenital anomaly can occur during various stages embryonic development usually does not have clinical significance, but possibility associated anomalies such as saccular aneurysms and arteriovenous malformations should be noted. Awareness key to avoiding iatrogenic injury endovascular diagnostic therapeutic interventions. Here, we present incidental findings 46-year-old woman evidenced by CT angiography neck's blood vessells after I .V. contrast medium applications.
