Fetal posterior cerebral artery duplication, true fetal posterior cerebral artery variation and trifurcation anterior cerebral artery association

Hatice Kaplanoglu et al. Surg Radiol Anat. 2020 Oct.

Abstract

We would like to present a case with fetal posterior cerebral artery duplication and anterior cerebral artery trifurcation, which we detected using magnetic resonance angiography. We believe this is the first case defined in the literature. Embryological explanation of posterior cerebral artery variations is discussed in light of the literature.

Keywords: Anatomy; Anterior cerebral artery; Cerebral arterial variation; Fetal posterior cerebral artery; Magnetic resonance angiography; Posterior cerebral artery.
