Abstract
Purpose: The variations of origin of ophthalmic artery are extremely rare. Here, we aimed to present a patient had a rare variation of the ophthalmic artery.
Clinical presentation: The patient had a history of Moyamoya disease. The imaging studies revealed ophthalmic artery origination from basillar artery. In addition, M1-segment fusiform aneurysm, vasculitis and, as a variation, middle meningeal artery originating from the ophthalmic artery were also detected. We presented this case report as it is the first case with ophthalmic artery originating from anterior inferior cerebellar artery.
Conclusion: In our case we reported, M1 segment fusiform aneurysm, vasculitis, and as a variation, middle meningeal artery originating from the ophthalmic artery and anterior inferior cerebellar artery as ophthalmic artery origin and hereby present it for inclusion into the literature. Ophthalmic artery anatomical abnormalities occupies so little place in existing literature when nominating rare variations. Ophtalmic artery originating from anterior inferior cerebellar artery firstly defined as an ophthalmic artery variation including its way-out branch structures.
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.
