Abstract:
:A patient with findings of bilateral cortical blindness and a unilateral carotid bruit is reported. A persistent trigeminal artery allowed emboli from a unilateral ulcerated internal carotid plaque to affect the visual cortex bilaterally. The angiographic findings and a brief discussion of this anomalous artery are presented.
