The circle of Willis is a part of the cerebral circulation and is composed of the following arteries: [3] Anterior cerebral artery (left and right) at their A1 segments; Anterior communicating artery; Internal carotid artery (left and right) at its distal tip (carotid terminus) Posterior cerebral artery (left and right) at their P1 segments

There are many examples of normal arterio-arterial anastomoses in the body. Clinically important examples include: Circle of Willis (in the brain) Coronary: anterior interventricular artery and posterior interventricular artery of the heart; Scapular anastomosis (for the subclavian vessels)
The anterior and posterior circulations meet at the circle of Willis, pictured here, which rests at the top of the brainstem. Inferior view. The posterior cerebral circulation is the blood supply to the posterior portion of the brain, including the occipital lobes, cerebellum and brainstem. It is supplied by the following arteries:

In human anatomy, the left and right posterior communicating arteries are small [1]: 471 arteries at the base of the brain that form part of the circle of Willis. Anteriorly, it unites with the internal carotid artery (ICA) (prior to the terminal bifurcation of the ICA into the anterior cerebral artery and middle cerebral artery ); posteriorly ...
The basilar artery (U.K.: / ˈ b æ z. ɪ. l ə /; [1] [2] U.S.: / ˈ b æ s. ə. l ər / [3]) is one of the arteries that supplies the brain with oxygen-rich blood.. The two vertebral arteries and the basilar artery are known as the vertebral basilar system, which supplies blood to the posterior part of the circle of Willis and joins with blood supplied to the anterior part of the circle of ...
