Persistent Trigeminal Artery in Endonasal Resection of Skull Base Tumors: A Systematic Review

Abstract: Primitive persistent trigeminal artery (PTA) is an uncommon embryologic vascular communication between the carotid and basilar arteries, which can be intimately involved by skull base tumors (SBT). Owing to its rarity, skull base surgeons should familiarize themselves with the anatomical variations of PTA to avoid catastrophic complications. To appraise and summarize the available evidence of PTA involved by SBTs while advocating a standardized algorithm for the surgical planning of these patients. MEDLINE and… Show more

“…[28] The trigeminal artery typically degenerates after development of the posterior communicating artery can be maintained continuously for unclear reasons. [29] The PPTA is commonly derived from the walls of the intracavernous internal carotid artery in a posterolateral or posteromedial direction. [30] Within the cavernous sinus, the PPTA is classified as lateral or medial.…”
