RESUMEN
We are performing a study on the distribution of atherosclerosis in the arteries and during our dissectionswe have found arterial malformations in the brain and heart. Of these, 6 are related to the posterior cerebralarteries and 3 are related to the posterior Interventricular artery of the heart. In all these three cases, suchaforementioned abnormality in the circle of Willis also occurred. It is an interesting and unexpected findingand we are still waiting for further development in our work in order to clarify these ârelatedâ malformations.
