1 Multidetector computed tomographic (CT) angiography : FREQUENTLY ANATOMICAL VARIATIONS OF THE CIRCLE WILLIS ICONOGRAPHIC REVIEW Dra. Ximena González Larramendi Dr. Fernando Landó Baison ABSTRACT: Objetives: To describe the variations of cerebral arterial blood flow related to the circle of Willis, excluding those related to the persistence of basilar carotid and to the skull base anastomosis. Clinical relevance, characteristics and incidence from the data provided by the literature will be evaluated. Methods: A retrospective observavational descriptive analysis of all circle of Willis angiotomographys performed in the hospital of Tacuarembó, during a period from december 1 st 2009 until august 31 st 2013 was made. In cases in wich relevant normal variationes were identified, 3D and MIP reconstruccions were performed, allowing a correct anatomical description of them. The data relating to the prevalence and association with other anomalies and aneurysms were taken from the literature. Results: The most common variants found in our study are linked to the PCA and to the A1 segment of ACA, wich is consistent with the literature. Conclusions: The circle of Willis presents variations in its anatomy in 60% of the cases. Some of them have clinical relevance in relation to an increase in the incidence of aneurysms and malformations, in relation to oclusive events and surgical planing, so it is essencial to recognize them.

2 2 ICONOGRAPHIC REVIEW INTRODUCTION: The circle of Willis, described by Thomas Willis in 1664, exhibits a known and systematized anatomy. It is a vascular circuit interconnecting the supraclinoid portion of both internal carotid, the horizontal segment (A1) of the anterior cerebral artery and the horizontal segment (P1) of the posterior cerebral artery through the anterior communicating artery and the posterior communicating arteries, respectively. Fewer than 40% of cases is presented complete and well developed so they are very frequent variations in its anatomy. Some of them are associated with an increased incidence of intracranial aneurysms or encephalic malformations. They may have implications with arterial occlusive event to determine ways of substitutions and extent of the ischemic area. Sometimes represent information relevant to surgical planning; such as the identification of the azygos ACA, the Fig. 1: ACoA DUPLICATION: each vessel originating separately from an anterior cerebral artery. formed two separate channels. (arrowheads). trifurcation of the ACA and the accessory MCA in surgeries of anterior aneurysms. With the emergence of multislice scanners ATC has become a frequent examination incorporated into the work routine due to its high spatial resolution and high sensitivity and specificity in the detection of vascular abnormalities. We will a iconographic review of the most common variants of the circle of Willis through retrospective image analysis ATC, obtained in the service of Tacuarembo tomography Hospital, in the period from December 1, 2009 to August 31, 2013; exclude those related to persistent carotid- basilar anastomosis and skull base. RESULTS: DUPLICATION It is the presence of two separate vessels of similar origin, route and destination. The most common is to ACoA duplication, with a prevalence of 18%. FENESTRATION Is defined as a division of the arterial lumen into distinctly separate channels, each with its own endothelial and muscularis layers. Intracranial arterial fenestration is more common in the vertebrobasilar arteries than in the arteries of the anterior circulation. Very rare in the posterior cerebral and communicating arteries, have a lower prevalence of 4% in the ACA (A1 segment), and 5% in the ACoA. An association has been observed between fenestration and aneurysm formation.

Fig. 4: AGENESIS A1 SEGMENT OF THE ACA : right- A2 segments (arrows) originating from the left A1 segment and absent right A1 segment (arrowhead) ABSENCES AND HYPOPLASIAS Sometimes some segment of the polygon can be absent or present a diminished caliber. In these cases, usually the contralateral artery supplies part or all the vascular territory, which implies an additional risk in case of ischemia.

4 4 ICONOGRAPHIC REVIEW AZYGOS ANTERIOR CEREBRAL ARTERY The prevalence of azygos anterior cerebral arteries is 0.2% 4.0% Represents persistence of the embryonic median artery of the corpus callosum. It is characterized by the convergence of the two A1 segments in a unique A2, disposition medial segment which provides both hemispheres vascularization. It may be associated with intracranial aneurysms, holoprosencephaly and abnormalities in neuronal migration. Fig 8: TRIFURCATION OF ACA: A and B: three A2 segments (thin arrows) are observed C: trifurcation of ACA (thin arrows) associated ACoA aneurysm (thick arrow) BIHEMISPHERIC ANTERIOR CEREBRAL ARTERY Fig 7. AZYGOS ACA: volumetric reconstructions (A) and MIP (B) of the anterior sector of the polygon. Two segments A1 (arrowheads) originating a single A2 segment are observed It is recognized by the presence of a dominant A2 segment that is the main blood supply to both hemispheres with hypoplasia of the contralateral A2 segment. The clinical relevance is similar to the azygous ACA. TRIFURCATION OF THE ANTERIOR CEREBRAL ARTERY : Is defined as the occurrence of three A2 segments This normal variant most likely represents persistence of the median callosal artery. Fig. 9: BIHEMISPHERIC ACA: volumetric and MIP reconstructions, A and B: hypoplastic segment A2 (arrow), bi- hemispheric dominant contralateral A2 segment (arrowhead).
5 MIDDLE CEREBRAL ARTERY ACCESSORY Arises from the ACA and runs parallel to the M1 segment of the MCA, supplying the anterior inferior frontal lobe region. Its importance is that it represents a collateral blood supply to the distal territory of the middle cerebral artery. Can associated an aneurysm at source. Fig. 11: POSTERIOR COMMUNICATING ARTERY INFUNDIBULUM: A- Volumetric Reconstruccion; B- MIP Recostruction: Right infundibulum (arrow). Left carotid aneurysm (thick arrow) were also observed. FETAL ORIGIN OF THE POSTERIOR CEREBRAL ARTERY It may occur on the right side (10% of the general population), the left side (10% of the general population), or bilaterally (8% of the general population) It is the persistence of the embryonic posterior cerebral artery. Fig. 10 ACM ACCESORIA: A- volumetric reconstructions (black arrow) B- MIP reconstruction POSTERIOR COMMUNICATING ARTERY INFUNDIBULUM Is a simetric dilatation at the origin of the posterior communicating artery from the internal carotid artery.. Has a diameter of less than 2 mm and thins distally. Must be distinguished from aneurysms of the posterior communicating artery. In the presence of this anomaly, the caliber of the posterior communicating artery may be the same as or greater than that of the ipsilateral P1 segment, and the dominant blood supply to the occipital lobes comes from the internal carotid arter. The P1 segment may be absent or hipoplasic. Multidetector computed tomographic (CT) angiography : FREQUENTLY ANATOMICAL VARIATIONS OF THE CIRCLE WILLIS 5
6 6 ICONOGRAPHIC REVIEW Fig 13. : TRUNK COMMON OF ACP AND ACS (arrow). CONCLUSIONS: The circle of Willis has variations in their normal anatomy as much as 60% of cases. Some of them have clinical relevance in relation to increase in incidence of malformations and aneurysms, occlusive events before and surgical planning, which is fundamental for recognizing them.
