A Persistent Primitive Hypoglossal Artery As the Sole Supply to the Brain Associated with a Basilar Bifurcation Aneurysm

The persistent primitive hypoglossal artery (PPHA) is the second most common persistent carotid–vertebrobasilar anastomosis, with an incidence of 0.027–0.26%. PPHAs change the hemodynamics of the carotid and vertebrobasilar system and may be associated with intracranial vascular anomalies, but basil...
