Basilar Artery
Recovery is variable depending on the degree of occlusion in the vertebrobasilar circulation. Persons with the severe form, basilar artery occlusion, often die in 75-85% of cases.
Cerebral arterial circle AKA Circle of Willis
The vertebral arteries merge to form a basilar artery which form the posterior Circle of Willis. The middle cerebral arteries form the rest of the Circle of Willis.

Basilar Migraine is a type of migraine that affects the basilar artery of the brain.
The vertebral arteries are branches from the subclavian arteries that travel up the spine in the foramen transversarium and into the skull in the formen magnum. They fuse at the level of the midbrain to form the basilar artery and then the posterior cerebral arteries. They supply blood to the brainstem, cerebellum and posterior portions of the brain.
"The basilar artery is vital to the brain."
vertebral arteries pass through foramen magnum and reach the inferior of the brain & unite to from the basilar artery. The vertebral artery supplies the posterior of the brain. Basilar atery branches into posterior cerebral artery & cerebellar arteries that supply the cerebellum & pons. Common carotid arteries divide & the internal carotid supplies structures internal to the skull
