Abstract:
The azygous anterior cerebral artery (ACA) is a rare type of ACA anomaly. In the conventional angiography, cognition of its realm is difficult without considerable reading. Clinically, misreading its nature causes confusion during the surgical approach to its associated cerebral aneurysm. We report this rare clinical experience with an angiographic and surgical review.
