The condition is a complex malformation syndrome caused by defective regression of the third branchial artery. The case is unusual because, in addition to the vascular anomaly of the carotid artery, there is an aneurysm of the anterior communicating artery and bilateral renal cysts. (orig.)Įnergy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)Ī rare arterial anastomosis between the right and left internal carotid arteries at the base at the skull, with aplasia of the cervical part of the left internal carotid artery is reported. Because of the characteristic angiographic aspects such a case should be called transverse carotid anastomosis. Intracranial carotid anastomosis and partial aplasia of an internal carotid arteryĪ rare arterial anastomosis between the right and left interal carotid arteries at the base at the skull, with aplasia of the cervical part of the left internal carotid artery is reported. The symptoms were caused by occlusion of the proximal middle cerebral artery which possibly related to the haemodynamic stress caused by the anomalous intercavernous anastomosis. We report a symptomatic case of unilateral hypoplasia of the internal carotid artery with an intercavernous anastomosis, a very rare developmental anomaly.
