Description

One of the main paired intracranial arteries involved in the development of the circle of Willis is the middle cerebral artery (MCA). Because it nourishes the cerebral neocortex, which has greatly evolved in humans, the middle cerebral artery is the most complicated intracranial artery. The anterior cerebral artery, a more recent evolutionary acquisition, has a collateral branch called the middle cerebral artery [Bhutta ZA et al., 2013]. Compared to other intracranial arteries, the middle cerebral artery anomalies are less frequently documented. 22-25 percent of fatalities related to subarachnoid haemorrhage as a result of burst aneurysms are attributable to aneurysms of the Anterior Communicating Artery (ACoA). The different vascular structure around the ACoA may change the hemodynamic factors that could influence how the ACoA aneurysm develops. Although contrast-enhanced angiography has been used frequently to examine changes in the anterior cerebral artery (ACA) and Anterior Communicating Artery (AcomA), there have been relatively few investigations using magnetic resonance angiography [Levine OS et al., 2011]. The anterior cerebral artery’s terminal branch is the internal carotid artery’s communicative section. A significant amount of the medial cerebral hemispheric surfaces, including the corpus callosum, frontal, parietal, and cingulate cortex, is supplied by the anterior cerebral artery, which is situated in the anterior and medial sides of the interhemispheric fissure. It anastomoses with its contralateral counterpart via the anterior communicating artery. The most significant anastomosis between the cerebral vessels is the anterior/rostral component of the circle of Willis, which is formed by this anastomosis. The internal carotid, posterior cerebral, anterior communicating, and posterior communicating arteries are the additional arteries that make up the Willis’ circle [Marchant A et al., 2015]. The superior and medial portions of the parietal lobe as well as the midline of the frontal lobe are all included in the area of the anterior cerebral artery, where anterior cerebral artery strokes can occur.

According to series reports, these rare causes of ischemic stroke account for between 0.3% and 4.4% of all instances of stroke. Whether the anterior cerebral artery or one of its branches is affected determines how this stroke will present clinically [Zhang X et al., 2017]. The spatial resolution of conventional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) techniques, such as timeof- flight magnetic resonance angiography, which is too low to detect minute arterial wall abnormalities, makes it difficult to make an accurate diagnosis of isolated anterior cerebral artery dissection. Data on Endovascular Therapy (EVT) for anterior cerebral artery occlusions are scarce. This study focuses on anterior cerebral artery anatomy, clinical and imaging findings, prognosis of anterior cerebral artery stroke and anterior cerebral artery thrombectomy methods, all of which are connected to anterior cerebral artery [Kollmann TR et al., 2017]. Common anatomical variations in the architecture of the anterior cerebral artery and the regions it supplies include azygos on anterior cerebral artery, triplicated on anterior cerebral artery and fenestrations of the anterior communicating artery. It is unclear how they affect infarct topography after anterior cerebral artery blockage [Zhang X et al., 2017]. A series of arteries known as the anterior perforating arteries pass through the anterior perforated material to enter the brain. The lenticulostriate artery, the recurrent artery of Heubner, and the perforators from A1 of the Anterior Cerebral Artery (ACA) might all be thought of as sharing a single embryological origin because they all enter the APS and supply the basal ganglia [Mold JE et al., 2012]. The importance of intracranial bypasses has been established by prior experience, notwithstanding the rarity of anterior cerebral artery bypasses for complicated aneurysms [Adkins B et al., 2004]. In this article, we discuss technical developments in intracranial bypass procedures. [Rudd BD et al., 2020, Olin A et al., 2018].

Conclusion

There are an abnormal ocular artery origins and disorders reported to be related with them. The right ophthalmic artery originated from the inferior surface of the anterior cerebral arteries in tract and crossed the optic nerve in its subarachnoid tract, according to an anatomical-radiological examination. On the same side, a meningo-ophthalmic artery was visible, and it entered the orbit through the superior orbital fissure. The presence or absence of the CmA determines which of the two fundamental configurations of the anterior cerebral artery is used. Numerous writers have measured and documented the diameter, length, and origin of the cortical branches and found that they vary greatly. The azygos, hemispheric, and median anterior cerebral arteries are frequent anterior cerebral arteries abnormalities. To reduce neurovascular morbidity brought on by surgical treatments carried out in this area, the anatomy of the anterior cerebral artery branches close to the anterior communicating artery complex was examined.
