Material and Methods: The study was conducted on 45 adult brain specimens of both sexes in human cadavers. The collected specimens were preserved in 10% formalin. The Circle of Willis of each brain was dissected with care.
Results: Variations of Circle of Willis in brain specimens includes – anomalous morphology, incomplete circle, and variable shape of Circle and variable length and external diameter of arteries of Circle of Willis. In the present study the .. Read More»
