  2. Cerebral arteries - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebral_arteries

    The cerebral arteries describe three main pairs of arteries and their branches, which perfuse the cerebrum of the brain. The three main arteries are the: Anterior cerebral artery (ACA), which supplies blood to the medial portion of the brain, including the superior parts of the frontal and anterior parietal lobes [1]

  3. Anterior cerebral artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_cerebral_artery

    The anterior cerebral artery supplies a part of the frontal lobe, specifically its medial surface and the upper border. It also supplies the front four–fifths of the corpus callosum, and provides blood to deep structures such as the anterior limb of the internal capsule, part of the caudate nucleus, and the anterior part of the globus ...

  4. Cerebral circulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebral_circulation

    Cerebral circulation is the movement of blood through a network of cerebral arteries and veins supplying the brain. The rate of cerebral blood flow in an adult human is typically 750 milliliters per minute , or about 15% of cardiac output .

  5. Middle cerebral artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_cerebral_artery

    Near the superior frontal gyrus these arteries anastomose with branches from the pericallosal artery of the anterior cerebral artery. Pre-Rolandic artery (precentral): The artery extends out on the medial surface of the operculum and supplies the posterior parts of the middle and inferior frontal gyri as well as the lower parts of the pre ...

  6. Lacunar stroke - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lacunar_stroke

    posterior limb of the internal capsule, basilar part of pons, and corona radiata, red nucleus, lentiform nucleus, superior cerebellar artery infarcts, anterior cerebral artery infarcts It displays a combination of cerebellar and motor symptoms, including weakness and clumsiness, on the ipsilateral side of the body. [4]

  7. Anterior cerebral artery syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_cerebral_artery...

    Anterior cerebral artery syndrome is a condition whereby the blood supply from the anterior cerebral artery (ACA) is restricted, leading to a reduction of the function of the portions of the brain supplied by that vessel: the medial aspects of the frontal and parietal lobes, basal ganglia, anterior fornix and anterior corpus callosum.

  8. Leptomeningeal collateral circulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leptomeningeal_collateral...

    The leptomeningeal collateral circulation (also known as leptomeningeal anastomoses or pial collaterals) is a network of small blood vessels in the brain that connects branches of the middle, anterior and posterior cerebral arteries (MCA, ACA, and PCA), [1] with variation in its precise anatomy between individuals. [2]

  9. Orbitofrontal artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbitofrontal_artery

    The orbitofrontal artery is one of the branches of the anterior cerebral artery, that supplies blood to the cerebrum. [1] The orbitofrontal artery is usually the first cortical branch of the A2 segment, arising from the subcallosal segment to supply the inferior and inferomedial surfaces of the frontal lobe including the gyri recti.
