Background and purpose Previous studies have described a correlation between variants of
the circle of Willis and pathological findings, such as cerebrovascular diseases. Moreover,
anatomic variations of the anterior cerebral artery (ACA) seem to correspond to the
prevalence of aneurysms in the anterior communicating artery (ACoA). The aim of this study
was to assess the prevalence of aneurysms in patients with anatomical/morphological
variations of the circle of Willis. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 223 patients who …
