The basal ganglia and thalamus are paired deep gray matter structures that may be involved
by a wide variety of disease entities. The basal ganglia are highly metabolically active and …

One uncommon type of ischemic stroke is occlusion of the artery of Percheron (AOP) leading
to infarction of the paramedian thalami and mesencephalon. There are several variants of …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Occlusion of the AOP results in a characteristic pattern of
ischemia: bilateral paramedian thalamus with or without midbrain involvement. Although the …

The paramedian thalamic arteries can arise as a pair from each P1 of the posterior cerebral
artery, but they may also arise equally from a common trunk off one P1, thus supplying …

The artery of Percheron is a solitary trunk representing an uncommon anatomic variant that
provides bilateral arterial supply to the paramedian thalami and the rostral midbrain …

The artery of Percheron (AOP) is a rare anatomic variant of the paramedian thalamic–
mesencephalic arterial supply, arising as a solitary arterial trunk from the P1 segment of the …

The occlusion of the artery of Percheron (AOP) is a rare condition that causes bilateral
thalamic ischemic stroke with or without midbrain involvement. It happens as a result of an …

The artery of Percheron (AOP) represents a rare anatomic variant of the posterior circulation.
It is a solitary trunk that provides bilateral arterial supply to the rostral midbrain and …

Abstract Background The artery of Percheron (AOP) is a single thalamoperforating arterial
trunk that provides bilateral supply to the paramedian thalami and the rostral midbrain. As …

Artery of Percheron is a normal variant of the paramedian branches of posterior cerebral
artery. This artery supplies the paramedian areas of the thalami and upper midbrain …
