We present the case of an 83-year-old woman with an isolated bilateral middle cerebellar peduncles stroke caused by complete occlusion of the right vertebral artery and focal occlusion of the left vertebral artery due to giant cell arteritis. The diagnosis was achieved by integrating MRI, ultrasound study, laboratory data and subsequent pathology analysis after biopsy of the temporal artery.
