Abstract
Four cases of a peculiar cerebral vascular abnormality, consisting of hypoplasia and stenosis of the internal carotid artery, often bilateral, and of an unusual pseudoangiomatous cerebral circulation, are reported. Such a condition, originally found in Japanese patients only, has an undetermined cause. The information obtained through clinical and angiographic studies in these 4 cases seems to favor the hypothesis of a congenital and malformative origin of this vascular abnormality.
