Anomalous Origin of the Middle Meningeal Artery from the Petrous Segment of the Internal Carotid Artery Associated with Multiple Cerebrovascular Abnormalities. The Internet Journal of Radiology. 2005 Volume 4 Number 2. Abstract A 25-year-old male with a history of seizure disorder was found incidentally on cerebral angiography to have numerous congenital anomalies of the cerebral vascular system. Among these anomalies were the derivation of the left middle meningeal artery from the petrous portion of the internal carotid artery, the presence of a left cavernous angioma, cavernous origin of the left ophthalmic artery, and an accessory middle cerebral artery. Awareness of cerebral circulatory anatomical anomalies of this nature is of importance to all physicians who plan surgical and endovascular interventions. INTRODUCTION resonance imaging (MRI) with and without gadolinium The middle meningeal artery in most individuals arises from revealed a left temporal lobe cavernoma and associated the maxillary branch of the external carotid artery and enters developmental venous anomaly in the region of the collateral the skull through the foramen spinosum. It then divides into gyrus that were unchanged from of first diagnosis (Fig. 2). anterior and posterior branches to supply the dura and An electroencephalogram (EEG) showed some mild cerebral adjacent calvarium. A few instances have been reported of dysfunction over the left temporal region with no the aberrant origin of the middle meningeal artery from epileptiform abnormality. -

TOPOGRAPHY OF THE MIDDLE MENINGEAL ARTERY AND ITS BRANCHES Middle meningeal artery (MMA) [1] is most commonly the strongest branch of maxillary artery (from external carotid artery) [2]. It supplies blood to cranial dura mater, and through the numerous perforating branches it nourishes also periosteum of the inner aspect of cranial bones. It enters the middle cranial fossa through the foramen spinosum, and courses between the dura mater and the inner aspect of the vault of the skull. Next it divides into two terminal branches — frontal (anterior) which supplies blood to bones forming anterior cranial fossa and the anterior part of the middle cranial fossa; parietal branch (posterior), which runs more horizontally toward the back and supplies posterior part of the middle cranial fossa and supratentorial part of the posterior cranial fossa. -
The Ophthalmic Artery Ii
Brit. J. Ophthal. (1962) 46, 165. THE OPHTHALMIC ARTERY II. INTRA-ORBITAL COURSE* BY SOHAN SINGH HAYREHt AND RAMJI DASS Government Medical College, Patiala, India Material THIS study was carried out in 61 human orbits obtained from 38 dissection- room cadavers. In 23 cadavers both the orbits were examined, and in the remaining fifteen only one side was studied. With the exception of three cadavers of children aged 4, 11, and 12 years, the specimens were from old persons. Method Neoprene latex was injected in situ, either through the internal carotid artery or through the most proximal part of the ophthalmic artery, after opening the skull and removing the brain. The artery was first irrigated with water. After injection the part was covered with cotton wool soaked in 10 per cent. formalin for from 24 to 48 hours to coagulate the latex. The roof of the orbit was then opened and the ophthalmic artery was carefully studied within the orbit. Observations COURSE For descriptive purposes the intra-orbital course of the ophthalmic artery has been divided into three parts (Singh and Dass, 1960). (1) The first part extends from the point of entrance of the ophthalmic artery into the orbit to the point where the artery bends to become the second part. This part usually runs along the infero-lateral aspect of the optic nerve. (2) The second part crosses over or under the optic nerve running in a medial direction from the infero-lateral to the supero-medial aspect of the nerve. (3) The thirdpart extends from the point at which the second part bends at the supero-medial aspect of the optic nerve to its termination. -
Dural Arteriovenous Malformation of the Major Venous Sinuses: an Acquired Lesion
13 Dural Arteriovenous Malformation of the Major Venous Sinuses: An Acquired Lesion Mohammad Y. Chaudhary,1.2 Arteriovenous malformations of the dura are thought to be congenital. However, Ved P. Sachdev3 arteriographic investigations of four patients who, after a head injury, developed dural Soo H. Ch01 arteriovenous fistulae with features of congenital malformations suggest that these Imre Weitzner, Jr.1 abnormal communications may also be acquired. Thrombosis or thrombophlebitis in Smiljan Puljic2 the dural sinus or vein may be the primary event in their formation. The pathogenesis Yun Peng Huang 1 is probably " growth" of the dural arteries normally present in the walls of the sinuses during the organization of an intraluminal thrombus. This may result in a direct communication between artery and vein or sinus, establishing an abnormal shunt. Ultimate fibrosis of the sinus wall and intraluminal thrombus may be the factors responsible for the spontaneous disappearance of such malformations. Most dural arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) that involve th e major venous sinuses present either spontaneously or as incidental findings during arteriog raphy performed for other reasons. They occur predominantly in women over age 40 years [1]. The angiomatous network, multiple feeding arteries, numerous arteriovenous (A V) shunts, and occasional association with cerebral angiomas [2], as well as a few cases reported in children [3], suggest that these AVM s are congenital. Thrombosis of the draining sinus or vein is thought to be responsible for the occasional spontaneous disappearance of these lesions [4, 5]. Our experience with four patients who, after a head injury, developed dural AV fistulae with features of congenital malformations prompted a review of th e literature and this report. -

Ciccio`, X P. Sylvestre, X A. Chiappini, X A.G. Weil, X S. Smajda, X C. Chaalala, X R. Blanc, X M. Reinert, X M. Piotin, and X M.W. Bojanowski ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Moyamoya disease is a progressive neurovascular pathology defined by steno-occlusive disease of the distal internal carotid artery and associated with the development of compensatory vascular collaterals. The etiology and exact anatomy of vascular collaterals have not been extensively studied. The aim of this study was to describe the anatomy of collaterals developed between the ophthalmic artery and the anterior cerebral artery in a Moyamoya population. MATERIALS AND METHODS: All patients treated for Moyamoya disease from 2004 to 2016 in 4 neurosurgical centers with available cerebral digital subtraction angiography were included. Sixty-three cases were evaluated, and only 38 met the inclusion criteria. Two patients had a unilateral cervical internal carotid occlusion that limited analysis of ophthalmic artery collaterals to one hemisphere. This study is consequently based on the analysis of 74 cerebral hemispheres. RESULTS: Thirty-eight patients fulfilled the inclusion criteria. The most frequently encountered anastomosis between the ophthalmic artery and cerebral artery was a branch of the anterior ethmoidal artery (31.1%, 23 hemispheres). In case of proximal stenosis of the anterior cerebral artery, a collateral from the posterior ethmoidal artery could be visualized (16 hemispheres, 21.6%). One case (1.4%) of anastomosis between the lacrimal artery and the middle meningeal artery that permitted the vascularization of a middle cerebral artery territory was also noted. -

SUMMARY: Accessory meningeal artery is a branch of the first part of the maxillary artery. It supplies the structures in the infratemporal fossa and the dura mater in the middle cranial fossa. Accessory meningeal artery arose from the middle meningeal artery, 25 mm below the base of the skull and entered the middle cranial fossa through the foramen ovale. The two roots of the auriculotemporal nerve looped around it. The knowledge of the variant origin and relations may be useful during the surgeries of the infratemporal fossa. It might also be useful to the radiologists. KEY WORDS: Accessory meningeal artery; Maxillary artery; Middle meningeal artery; Infratemporal fossa. INTRODUCTION Accessory meningeal artery is a branch of first part root. The main trunk of the auriculotemporal nerve passed of the maxillary artery. However, it might also arise from backwards, deep to the middle meningeal artery. Since the the middle meningeal artery in a few cases. Though the artery originated just below the skull, it did not supply the name is accessory meningeal artery, it predominantly structures in the infratemporal fossa. It predominantly supplies the muscles, and nerves of the infratemporal fossa. -

However, the OB passing through the meningo-orbital foramen (mof) only associationaly anastomosed with branches of the ophthalmic artery (4/79). Further- more, the OB in the orbit, excluding the lacrimal gland as previously reported. We examined 116 cases in which the OB passed through the mof in 129 adult Japanese cadavers (45.0% in 258 sides). The OB passing through the mof was always distributed to the periorbital region and the area that it supplied was limited to the periorbita in about half of those cases. In another half of the cases (58/116), the area supplied included the lacrimal gland. The ophthalmic artery in the orbital branch arising cadavers (74 males and 55 females) to determine the from the middle meningeal artery has been described course of the orbital branch and the nerve of the previously (Zuckerkandl, 1876; Meyer, 1887; Lang supply to the orbital area from the middle meningeal and Wachsmuth, 1979; Hollinshead, 1982). -
