Abstract:
Several studies have described the anatomy of the anterior cerebral vascular complex involving the proximal anterior cerebral artery(A1), the anterior communicating artery, and the recurrent artery of Heubner. The anatomic data of these vessels with special reference to the cerebrovascular artery were reviewed. The unilateral hypoplasia of the proximal anterior cerebral artery and fenestration of the anterior communicating artery were most frequent vascular anomalies of each vessel which were associated with aneurysms of the anterior communicating artery.
