Morphology and Comparative Anatomy of Circulus Arteriosus Cerebri in Mammals

Abstract: The normal configuration of the arterial pattern at the base of the brain in rhesus monkeys, dogs, sheep, goats and rabbits is described. The length and diameter of all vessels of the circulus arteriosus cerebri are measured. Variations are compared in relation to that of the typical pattern present in humans. In rhesus monkeys, dogs and rabbits, the circle of Willis is almost similar to that in human beings except that in these animals, (i) the anterior cerebral arteries join each other to form a single media… Show more

“…The overall schema of the blood supply to the cranial region and the brain, the histological structure of the walls of the arteries, and the basic pattern of the embryological development are essentially the same in dog as they are in man ( Figure 5) [7,11] been described in humans, and they play a significant role in the cerebral aneurysms formation, in terms of hemodynamic stress caused by variations [12,13]. In contrast, variants of the Circle of Willis have been rarely described in dog so far [7,14,15].…”

“…To date, very little is known concerning the type and incidence of variants and anomalies of the cerebrovascular system in dogs and cats [7][8][9]. Historically, few cases of cerebral hemorrhage in dogs were thought to be correlated to aneurysm, but their existence could not be proved [10].…”

“…Thus, we prevented the unintended entry of Percusurge by navigating a guiding catheter distally to the bifurcation of the Pcom A. 6,9) In monkey models of transient MCAo, relatively clear findings of infarction are often obtained around the head of the caudate nucleus, which corresponds to the deep border zone. 5,10) Also, pyknosis demonstrated by histological examination is consistent with findings suggestive of cerebral infarction.…”

“…Origines du système artériel cérébral (GILLIAN 1974 ;GILLIAN 1976 ;KAPOOR, KAK et SINGH, 2003) Chez l'homme, les primates, le rat et le lapin, le sang artériel atteint le cerveau par les artères carotides internes et les artères vertébrales. Sur la face ventrale du cerveau, les artères forment un réseau complexe d'anastomoses dit cercle ou polygone de Willis.…”
