Microsurgical anatomy of cerebral revascularization. Part I: Anterior circulation

Abstract

Although a clear guideline for cerebral revascularization procedures has not yet been established, it is important to understand various microsurgical techniques and their related anatomical structures. This will help surgeons consider surgical indications for treatment of patients with vertebrobasilar ischemia caused by aneurysms, tumors, or atherosclerotic diseases in the posterior circulation.
