Quadruple sectoranopia and sectorial optic atrophy: a syndrome of the distal anterior choroidal artery.
نویسنده
چکیده
Loss of upper and lower homonymous sectors in the visual field, and wasting of corresponding sectors in the retinal nerve fibre layer, followed ligation of the distal part of the anterior choroidal artery in a patient with a meningioma of the velum interpositum. Clinical and radiological evidence indicated that the visual pathway was damaged within that part of the lateral geniculate body that is served by the anterior choroidal artery.

Sectorial optic atrophy and homonymous, horizontal sectoranopia: a lateral choroidal artery syndrome?
Two patients with sectorial optic atrophy and homonymous, horizontal sectoranopia are described. Neuroradiological investigations localised the visual pathway lesion to the lateral geniculate body. The peculiar nature of the field defect and the optic atrophy appeared explicable in terms of ischaemia in the territory of the lateral choroidal artery.
متن کاملHomonymous horizontal sectoranopia: report of four cases.
Four cases of right homonymous horizontal sectoranopia are described. They were investigated with automatic static perimetry matched in three cases with Goldmann perimetry. In two cases--a wound of lateral sinus, a temporal surgically excised oligo-dendroglioma--neuroradiological investigations localised the visual pathways lesion to the optic radiations. In two other cases the lesions of vascu...

متن کاملThe origin and relations of the anterior choroidal artery: an anatomical study.
There has recently been an increase in surgical interventions to the inferior temporal lobe. The aim of the present study is to examine the anatomical structure and relations of the anterior choroidal artery, which extends to this region. A mixture of latex and ink was injected into the internal carotid and basilar arteries of 15 brains from fresh cadavers. In 18 out of 30 cases (60%) the anter...
متن کاملTransposition of Anterior Choroidal Artery and Posterior Communicating Artery Origin
The anterior choroidal artery has several kinds of variations. Among them, the transposition of anterior choroidal artery and posterior communicating artery origins has been extremely rare. We report a case with cerebral aneurysm arising from posterior communicating artery which origin was distal to the anterior choroidal artery and review the relevant literature.
