Abstract

Among variations of the anterior cerebral artery (ACA), anastomosis of its A1–A2 junction with the ophthalmic segment of the internal carotid artery is rare and described as carotid-ACA anastomosis or infraoptic course of the ACA. One common variant, an azygos ACA, demonstrates no pairing of the A2 segment. To our knowledge, association of a carotid-ACA anastomosis with an azygos ACA is not reported in the English-language literature. We report a case diagnosed by magnetic resonance angiography in which right carotid-ACA anastomosis was associated with an azygos ACA and the right ophthalmic artery originated from the middle meningeal artery.
