Résumé
Variations of the cavernous Internal Carotid Artery (ICA) angulation (C4-bend) have been classified into 4 anatomical subtypes with particular surgical relevance, as a very angulated ICA comes in closest contact with the pituitary gland leading to higher risk of iatrogenic vascular injury. This study aimed to validate this classification using current routine imaging techniques.
