Abstract
In a 67yearold male individual the unique precommunicating part of the left anterior cerebral artery was found to course between both optic nerves There was an agenesis of the right precommunicating cerebral artery This variation was associated with an aberrant origin of the ophthalmic artery arising from the anterior cerebral artery The anatomic features the possible high prevalence of associated aneurysms of the anterior communicating artery complex as well as implications for surgical planning or endovascular treatments are outlined and embryologic considerations are discussed
