Bilateral persistent hypoglossal arteries (PHAs) are extremely rare, with only 5 cases reported in the English-language literature. Using magnetic resonance angiography, we diagnosed a case in which the left side was a typical PHA and the right side was presumed a PHA variant that supplied only the posterior inferior cerebellar artery.
双侧永存舌下动脉(PHA)极为罕见,英文文献中仅报道过5例。我们通过磁共振血管造影诊断了1例病例,其中左侧为典型的PHA,右侧推测为仅供应小脑后下动脉的PHA变异型。
