pubmed:abstractText |
The trigeminocerebellar artery was found on the left side in one of 22 brainstems, with the vasculature injected with India ink or methylmethacrylate. The trigeminocerebellar artery, which measured 910 microns in diameter, arose from the basilar artery. The artery was divided into the pontine, trigeminal, cerebellopontine, and cerebellar segments. The artery supplied the anterolateral and lateral part of the pons, the trigeminal nerve root, the middle cerebellar peduncle, and most of the petrosal surface of the cerebellar hemisphere. Although relatively rare, the trigeminocerebellar artery may cause trigeminal neuralgia. Occlusion of this artery would cause a syndrome similar to the lateral midpontine syndrome. The trigeminocerebellar artery could be misinterpreted on angiograms as the anterior inferior cerebellar artery with a high origin from the basilar artery.
