We describe a 2-year-old girl with bow hunter syndrome complicated by vertebral artery dissection and multiple ischemic infarcts. Pediatric bow hunter syndrome is a rare and likely under-recognized disorder. Interestingly, our patient had atlanto-occipital ligament calcification on CT scan, an imaging finding that has not been reported in association with bow hunter syndrome and one that might help increase recognition of this dynamic disorder of the posterior circulation.
