• Basilar artery fenestrations were found in 2.33 % of patients undergoing CT angiography. • Fenestrations were seen more often in the lower third with slit-like configurations. • No obvious relationship exists between basilar artery fenestration and aneurysm formation. • Basilar artery fenestrations perhaps predispose a patient to posterior circulation aneurysm formation. • The AICA tends to originate more often from convex-lens-like than slit-like fenestrations.

Twenty-four MMS patients undergoing STA-MCA bypass received CTP pre- and post-surgery. Cerebral haemodynamics improved on the surgical side post-surgery on CTP maps. rCBF might have a better correlation with patency of the bypass artery. CTP can evaluate cerebral perfusion changes in MMS patients after cerebral revascularization.
