AI Article Synopsis
- - Cerebral artery fenestrations are uncommon anatomical variations often found by chance during imaging studies and can be linked to vascular issues like aneurysms or arteriovenous malformations.
- - Although generally seen as harmless, these fenestrations can sometimes lead to serious complications including ischemic strokes or bleeding.
- - The article presents a unique case of middle cerebral artery fenestration that resulted in both subarachnoid hemorrhage and thrombosis, marking the first known occurrence of this combination in medical literature.
Article Abstract
Cerebral artery fenestrations are rare anatomical variants usually detected incidentally on cross-sectional imaging or cerebral angiography. Although considered benign findings, many reports have described their association with vascular abnormalities such as aneurysms or arteriovenous malformations, and to a lesser extent with ischemic or hemorrhagic complications. We report a case of middle cerebral artery fenestration associated with subarachnoid hemorrhage and middle cerebral artery thrombosis. To our knowledge, there has been no prior report of middle cerebral artery fenestration with a similar presentation.
