“…Adult type circulation was found in 105 patients (83.3%), with fetal circulation identified unilaterally in 11.1% of cases, and bilaterally in 5.6% of cases, a finding that is congruent with literature studies [15,19,24]. In the evaluation of adult vs fetal type circulation, that relies on deciding whether the posterior communicating artery is larger than the precommunicating segment of the posterior cerebral artery, some studies cite a third variant called transitional, where the two arteries are identical in size; however, we did not take this option into consideration, as we considered that it can introduce bias due to the limits in accurately comparing the vessel diameters, where the imaging plane, resolution and scale, blood flow, and imaging software may influence the measurements.…”
