Carotid siphon morphology: Is it associated with posterior communicating aneurysms?

摘要

Background and purposePosterior communicating artery (PComA) aneurysm seems to behave uniquely compared with other intracranial aneurysms at different locations. The association between the morphology of the carotid siphon and PComA aneurysms is not well known. This study aimed to investigate whether the anatomical characteristics of the carotid siphon are associated with the formation and rupture of PComA aneurysms.
