Anomalous origin of the middle meningeal artery from the inferolateral trunk with an arterial circle around a hypoplastic internal carotid artery in an infant with a dural arteriovenous fistula
Keyword(s):
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.
