Abstract
This article, titled "Origin and Course of the Branches of the Cavernous Internal Carotid Artery from the Endoscopic Endonasal Perspective: A Cadaveric Study," explores the anatomical variations and course of the branches of the cavernous internal carotid artery (cICA) from an endoscopic endonasal perspective. The study was conducted using thirty formalin-fixed latex-injected specimens, and the researchers identified the origin, course, and localization of cICA branches such as the inferolateral trunk (ILT), meningohypophyseal trunk (MHT), anterior and inferior McConnel's capsular arteries (MCAs), and superolateral trunk (SLT). The results showed that the ILT and MHT were present in all cases, while the anterior and inferior MCAs were present in 28% and 25% of cases, respectively. The study provides valuable information for surgeons performing endoscopic endonasal approaches to treat cavernous sinus lesions. [Extracted from the article]
