Combined duplicate origin and early bifurcated middle cerebral artery diagnosed by magnetic resonance angiography.
Purpose: To describe a case of combined duplicate origin and early bifurcated middle cerebral artery (MCA) incidentally diagnosed using magnetic resonance (MR) angiography.
Methods: A 51-year-old woman with an unruptured left MCA aneurysm underwent cranial MR angiography with a 3-Tesla scanner for presurgical evaluation. MR angiography was performed using a standard 3-dimensional time-of-flight technique.
Results: An unruptured left MCA aneurysm at the M1-M2 junction was identified. The maximum aneurysm diameter was 9 mm. Two almost equally sized right MCAs arose from the terminal segment of the right internal carotid artery. These two channels soon anastomosed, and the temporal branch arose from the inferior channel. The aneurysm was successfully treated with coil embolization.
Conclusion: We herein report a case of a combined duplicate origin and early bifurcated MCA. This variation can also be regarded as anastomosis between the main MCA and the duplicated MCA. This variation has been previously reported as segmental duplication of the MCA. This is the third case of this rare MCA variation reported in the relevant English-language literature. The term "segmental duplication" may be confused with duplicate origin of the MCA, in which only one artery is located distal to the fusion.
期刊介绍:
Anatomy is a morphological science which cannot fail to interest the clinician. The practical application of anatomical research to clinical problems necessitates special adaptation and selectivity in choosing from numerous international works. Although there is a tendency to believe that meaningful advances in anatomy are unlikely, constant revision is necessary. Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, the first international journal of Clinical anatomy has been created in this spirit.
Its goal is to serve clinicians, regardless of speciality-physicians, surgeons, radiologists or other specialists-as an indispensable aid with which they can improve their knowledge of anatomy. Each issue includes: Original papers, review articles, articles on the anatomical bases of medical, surgical and radiological techniques, articles of normal radiologic anatomy, brief reviews of anatomical publications of clinical interest.
Particular attention is given to high quality illustrations, which are indispensable for a better understanding of anatomical problems.
Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy is a journal written by anatomists for clinicians with a special interest in anatomy.
