Quantitative study of anterior cerebral artery
Journal Title: MedPulse -International Medical Journal - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 5
Abstract
In the present study statistical analysis of Anterior cerebral artery was done to set normal reference value for calculable parameters and find out whether there was any significant difference in age, sex in relation with side in 100 apparently normal formalin fixed brains of human cadavers. There was highly significant statistical difference in the mean length of right and left anterior cerebral artery. From this study it was observed that the anterior cerebral artery in a majority of cases had greater length on the right side. There was highly significant statistical difference in the mean diameter of right and left anterior cerebral artery. The knowledge of the normal length and diameter of these vessels is useful to the surgeons in assessing the practicability of shunt operations and choose patient for procedures appropriately.
