    Vertebro-vertebral fistula involving the V3 segment of the vertebral artery is a rare vascular pathology which is either spontaneous or traumatic in origin. We describe a post-operative traumatic vertebro-vertebral fistula in a 47-year old lady with NF-1. We review reported cases of V3 segment vertebrovertebral fistula for their incidence, aetiology, clinical presentation, treatment and outcomes using an illustrative case. Traumatic V3 segment vertebrovertebral fistula is predominantly managed with parent vessel occlusion. Per the algorithm presented, we suggest endovascular management of non-traumatic fistula be based on the anatomical variance of the contralateral vertebral artery.
