Incidental bilateral accessory middle cerebral arteries on MR imaging and MR angiography.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Intracranial vascular variations involving the middle cerebral artery are rarely seen. Herein, we report an 11-year-old girl with incidental bilateral accessory middle cerebral arteries, an extremely rare variation, which is the first case in the related literature demonstrated by cranial magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance angiography.

MR imaging, MR angiography, and MR spectroscopy of the brain in eclampsia.
PURPOSE To compare the MR imaging and MR angiographic changes with in vivo proton MR spectroscopic findings and to determine the spectral differences between edema and ischemia in patients with eclampsia. METHODS Spin-echo MR imaging, MR angiography, and single-voxel proton MR spectroscopy were performed in 10 patients with eclampsia. MR studies were obtained within 3 to 5 days of diagnosis a...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We report our experience with MR imaging, MR angiography, and catheter angiography in children with acute idiopathic cerebral infarction and suggest that catheter angiography may still play an important role in this setting. METHODS During the past 8 years, 18 children with idiopathic cerebral infarction underwent MR imaging and catheter angiography; 17 were also studie...
متن کاملMagnetic resonance angiography demonstrating adult moyamoya disease progressing from unilateral to bilateral involvement--case report.
A 21-year-old woman presented with moyamoya disease manifesting as speech disturbance and right quadrant hemianopsia on October 22, 1994. Magnetic resonance (MR) angiography showed occlusion of the left internal carotid artery (ICA) with the normal right ICA. The diagnosis was "unilateral" moyamoya disease by conventional angiography. Follow-up MR angiography revealed further occlusive changes ...
متن کاملDual energy computed tomography angiography for the rapid diagnosis of reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndromes: report of a case.
PURPOSE Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) is characterized by segmental vasoconstriction and dilatation of intracranial arteries, typically affecting bilateral medium-sized intracranial arteries and their branches. The diagnosis usually relies both on clinical presentations and cerebral vascular imaging such as magnetic resonance angiography or conventional angiography. Dual ...
متن کاملCT angiography and diffusion-perfusion MR imaging in a patient with ipsilateral reversible cerebral vasoconstriction after carotid endarterectomy.
Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndromes (RCVS) typically affect the bilateral medium-sized intracerebral arteries and their branches. We describe a woman with RCVS restricted to the ipsilateral hemisphere after carotid endarterectomy. Serial CT angiography proved useful in documenting vasoconstriction. Perfusion MR imaging showed hypoperfusion in the deep watershed regions of the ipsilat...
