Mechanical Thrombectomy of the Fetal Posterior Cerebral Artery [PDF]

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, 2021
Background Fetal posterior cerebral artery (FPCA) occlusion is a rare but potentially disabling cause of stroke. While endovascular treatment is established for acute large vessel occlusion stroke, FPCA occlusions were excluded from acute ischemic stroke

The Fetal Type of Posterior Cerebral Artery

Medicina, 2023
Background and Objectives: Anatomical variations of the arterial circle of Willis (cW) are common. A posterior cerebral artery (PCA) fed mostly or exclusively from the internal carotid artery is a fetal PCA (FPCA), partial (p-FPCA), or full/complete (f ...

Failure of the Pipeline Embolization Device in Posterior Communicating Artery Aneurysms Associated with a Fetal Posterior Cerebral Artery [PDF]

Case Reports in Vascular Medicine, 2016
The pipeline embolization device has emerged as an important endovascular option. This is in part due to safety, efficacy, and possibly the ability to shorten the operative time considerably.

Fetal posterior cerebral artery infarction due to carotid dissection: a case report [PDF]

Journal of Medical Case Reports
Background Fetal posterior cerebral artery is an anatomical variant that occurs in 23–29% of the population. In this variant, posterior circulation, especially to the occipital lobe and mesencephalon, is provided by the posterior communicating artery ...

Fetal-Type Variants of the Posterior Cerebral Artery and Concurrent Infarction in the Major Arterial Territories of the Cerebral Hemisphere [PDF]

Journal of Investigative Medicine High Impact Case Reports, 2016
Fetal-type or fetal posterior cerebral artery (FPCA) is a variant of cerebrovascular anatomy in which the distal posterior cerebral artery (PCA) territory is perfused by a branch of the internal carotid artery (ICA).

Efficacy and safety of fetal posterior cerebral artery stented coil embolization for fetal posterior cerebral aneurysms [PDF]

Interventional Neuroradiology, 2023
Purpose Aneurysms at the origin of the fetal posterior cerebral artery (fPCA) often show fPCA bifurcation from the aneurysm dome, impeding complete embolization and dense coil packing. The recanalization rate for fPCA aneurysms is therefore high.

Flow dynamics in acute ischemic stroke due to embolic occlusion of a fetal posterior cerebral artery treated with endovascular thrombectomy - report of two cases [PDF]

Radiology Case Reports, 2022
The fetal variant of the posterior cerebral artery (fPCA) conserves a major blood flow from the anterior to the posterior cerebral circulation via a strong persistent caudal portion of the embryonic internal carotid artery.

Pure Infarct of the Oculomotor Nucleus With Fetal Posterior Cerebral Artery Involvement [PDF]

Cureus, 2021
Vascular anomalies are present in the posterior circulation. In the case of this stroke patient, the posterior cerebral artery (PCA) was shown to have a fetal origin. A fetal PCA is classified as either a partial or complete fetal PCA, which can be determined by the presence of a remnant or absence of P1, the PCA segment directly arising from the ...

Distal anterior cerebral artery aneurysm with bilateral fetal posterior cerebral arteries and trifurcation of anterior cerebral artery

Indian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2020
Developmental vascular anomalies of brain are non-modifiable risk factors for the development of aneurysms and are prone for rupture. We report one such association in a 44–year-old gentleman who succumbed to subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) secondary to ...
