Abstract
- The present study was undertaken in order to determine the anatomical structures of the circle of Willis, with the purpose of learning its normal configuration, the frequency of deficient or incomplete circles, and, if possible, how these findings could be correlated with the clinical problems of vascular disease, such as infarcts, aneurysms, and other vascular anomalies.
