Transposition of Anterior Choroidal Artery and Posterior Communicating Artery Origin
نویسندگان
چکیده
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.

Anterior choroidal artery: angiographic analysis of variations and anomalies.
In the first part of this investigation, 216 consecutive carotid angiograms from 108 patients were reviewed to analyze variations of the anterior choroidal artery (AChA) for the origin, size, and course of the stem and for the possible identification of the uncal branch, perforating branches, and plexal segment of the AChA. In the second part of our investigation, we analyzed anomalies of the A...

Five patients with kissing aneurysms (adherent internal carotid-posterior communicating artery and ipsilateral internal carotid-anterior choroidal artery aneurysms) are reported. There was female predominance and the subarachnoid hemorrhage was commonly due to rupture of the proximal posterior communicating artery aneurysm. Despite the demonstration of angiographic cleavage, the two aneurysms a...

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 کاملReal-Time Evaluation of Anterior Choroidal Artery Patency During Aneurysm Clipping.
Inadvertent occlusion of the anterior choroidal artery during aneurysm clipping can cause a disabling stroke in minutes. We evaluate the clinical utility of direct cortical motor evoked potential (MEP) monitoring during aneurysm clipping, as a real-time assessment of arterial patency, prior to performing indocyanine green videoangiography. Direct cortical MEPs were recorded in seven patients ...

Highly advanced optical equipment enables endoscopic surgery to be performed in neurosurgery. We developed an angle-type rigid endoscope having an angled shaft, and has performed endoscope-assisted surgery in neck clipping of 50 cerebral aneurysms. Anatomical study concerning the perforating branch was made through a pterional approach using 3 cadavers. By using endoscope, we can observe the po...
