Abstract EN
Variations in intracranial vasculature are well known.
We report a rare anatomic variation in a patient who underwent cerebral angiography for suspected intracranial aneurysm.
Digital subtraction angiography revealed a bihemispheric posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA) and an azygous anterior cerebral artery (ACA).
There was no evidence of any aneurysm or vascular abnormality.
To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of a patient with a common PICA supplying both the cerebellar hemispheres and a common ACA supplying ACA territory bilaterally.
It is important for the physician to be aware of these anatomical variations in order to differentiate a normal variant from a pathological condition.
