RESUMEN
Objective:
to study the anatomical features of posterior communicating artery aneurysms in relation to the anatomical variants of the paren vessels.Methods:
Angiograms of 106 PCom aneurysms were reviewed.Results:
Fetal Posterior Cerebral Artery was found in 19,8 por ciento of the cases; 57,5 por ciento of the aneurysms originated in the carotid artery; 78 por ciento of the aneurysms were smalls (less than 10mm).Conclusion:
Pcom aneurysms most frecuently arise from the carotid artery itself. The presence of a fetal posterior cerebral artery is not related to the development of Pcom aneurysms
