The bleed can be very small without any significant effect on surrounding brain or large hemorrhage that exerts ...

The brachiocephalic artery or trunk is the first and largest artery that branches to form the right common carotid artery and the right subclavian artery.
Considerable anatomic variation exists in the circle of Willis, with classic anatomy seen only in about one-third of people. [4] In one common variation the proximal part of the posterior cerebral artery is narrow and its ipsilateral posterior communicating artery is large, so the internal carotid artery supplies the posterior cerebrum; this is ...
