چکیده

Five cases of unilateral middle cerebral artery fenestration were observed during the prospective evaluation of 1466 consecutive cerebral angiograms (0.43% of 1170 patients) between January 1999 and July 2001. In each case, an early branching temporopolar artery was seen to arise from the inferior limb of the fenestrated segment. This finding suggests that early branching temporopolar arteries may participate in the formation of middle cerebral artery fenestration by interfering with the normal fetal development of the middle cerebral artery.

[Fenestration of the middle cerebral artery associated with an aneurysm].

A case of fenestration of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) associated with an aneurysm arising from the distal bifurcation was reported. A 65-year-old male was suddenly seized with severe headache followed by left hemiparesis. CT scan demonstrated a right temporal intracerebral hematoma and right carotid angiography showed an aneurysm arising from the bifurcation of the right MCA and a fene...

Fenestration of the middle cerebral artery detected by MR angiography.

Unlike fenestration of the posterior cerebral arterial circulation, fenestration of the anterior cerebral arterial circulation has not been well described. We investigated the location and configuration of fenestration of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) detected by magnetic resonance (MR) angiography. We found 6 fenestrations of the MCA among cranial MR angiography images obtained from about 2...

Multichannel fenestrations of the petrous segment of the internal carotid artery.

Multichannel fenestration of the internal carotid artery (ICA) is a rare, previously unreported developmental anomaly with unknown clinical significance. Although previously thought to have distinct embryologic origins, the presence of multiple channels in a short-segment fenestration favors a common developmental pathway for the origin of duplications and fenestrations: the persistence of a pl...
