Deviations from normal embryologic development can manifest in different anatomical variants of the ophthalmic artery. We present a case of an infant treated for a high-flow dural arteriovenous fistula of the superior sagittal sinus, in whom an arterial circle involving the ophthalmic artery, the middle meningeal artery, the inferolateral trunk and a hypoplastic segment of the internal carotid artery was found. The embryologic development is briefly reviewed with emphasis on the possible genesis of this interesting constellation.

✓ The sources of blood supply of calvarial hemangiomas are not well established angiographically but have been reported to derive from the middle meningeal artery. A case is presented in which both the external and the internal carotid arteries supplied the hemangioma. The protean arteriographic picture is explained in terms of the various tissues the tumor involves (galea, calvarium, or meninges).

Abstract Objective: An endovascular approach is often the first-line treatment of dural arteriovenous fistulae (DAVFs). Information on the use of Onyx (ev3 Neurovascular, Irvine, CA) for treating DAVFs, however, is limited. Therefore, we present our early experience, technical considerations, and complications associated with the use of Onyx for DAVF embolization. Methods: Twenty-eight patients with 29 DAVFs treated with Onyx embolization were included in this analysis. Hospital records, operative reports, and angiograms were reviewed and analyzed. Results: Forty Onyx procedures, including 39 transarterial and 1 transvenous approaches, were performed. Fifty-one external carotid artery branches, 8 posterior meningeal artery branches, and 3 internal carotid artery branches were used for Onyx embolization. Branches of the middle meningeal artery were embolized 32 times, and the occipital artery was embolized 15 times. Twenty-one fistulae (72%) were cured angiographically with endovascular therapy. Transarterial embolization via the middle meningeal artery cured 12 DAVFs (41%). Four complications (9.7%) were recorded, including 3 transient (7.3%) and 1 permanent neurological deficits (2.4%). Follow-up imaging, which was available for 8 fistulae with angiographic cures, showed no evidence of recurrence. Conclusion: Transarterial Onyx embolization of external carotid artery branches, particularly the middle meningeal artery, offers a high likelihood of cure. This technique provides a safe and effective method of embolization with few side effects and complications. However, long-term follow-up is needed to establish its efficacy.

Ophthalmic artery (OA) is known for anomalous origin and aberrant course probably attributable to its complex embryology. Anomalous origin of OA can be associated with intracranial aneurysm. Anomalous origins have been reported from middle meningeal artery (MMA), cavernous carotid, posterior communicating, anterior cerebral and basilar artery. Even though bilateral anomalous origin of OA from MMA is a rare finding, to the author’s best knowledge, association of above condition with bilateral internal carotid artery aneurysms has not been described in the literature. We present a case of such anomalous bilateral OA originating from MMA and associated with bilateral internal carotid artery aneurysms. We have also reviewed the pertinent literature regarding anomalous OA origin.

Background: The objective of this study was to compare the distance from mandibular condyle to internal carotid artery and middle meningeal artery.Methods: In this study 20 skulls obtained from the Department of Anatomy were utilized for the study. The following two parameters were measured using Vernier Caliper (digital). 1. Distance from Mandibular condyle to carotid canal 2. Distance from medial margin of Mandibular condyle to Foramen spinosum. All the measurements were taken thrice to minimize errors. Photograph of the skull base showing the measurements done was captured.Results: A total of 40 sides, 20 right and 20 left sides were studied. The mean distance between medial margin of mandibular condyle to carotid canal was 11.2 mm±0.6 on right side and 11.6mm±0.8 on left side. The mean distance from the medial margin of mandibular condyle to Foramen spinosum (middle meningeal artery) was 9.3 mm±1.1 on right side and 9.8mm±0.9 on left side. Conclusions: The distance between mandibular condyle to Middle meningeal artery is less compared to the distance between Mandibular condyle to carotid artery. The current study concludes that MMA is comparatively at high risk for damage compared to internal carotid artery.

Atypical origin of the middle meningeal artery from the cervical internal carotid artery is a rare angiographic finding. We describe a case of the pharyngo-tympano-stapedial variant of the middle meningeal artery in a young patient. In this vascular variation the proximal segment of the middle meningeal artery, corresponding to an annexed inferior tympanic artery, originates from the cervical carotid artery. Then over the promontory it unites with the superior tympanic artery and continues with its intracranial course via the petrous branch.
