چکیده

A 39-year-old woman presented with left visual disturbance and diplopia. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a well-enhanced tumor in the left tentorium, cavernous sinus, and suprasellar region. Angiography demonstrated an abnormal origin of the ophthalmic artery from the anterior cerebral artery. The tumor was partially removed by left frontotemporal craniotomy with orbitozygomatic osteotomy. Intraoperatively, the anomalous origin of the ophthalmic artery was confirmed. This anatomical variation is extremely rare.

Bilateral anomalous anterior cerebral artery and infraoptic aneurysm.

A CT scan demonstrated a subarachnoid hemorrhage. A followup four-vessel cerebral angiogram demonstrated bilateral anomalous ACAs, with the origin at the level of the ophthalmic artery proximal to the posterior communicating and anterior choroidal arteries. The proximal portion of each ectopic proximal segment was horizontal , suggesting that both ACAs coursed below the optic nerves (Figs . 1 A...
