Anomalous vertebral arteries and recurrent ischemic stroke: Insights from a unique case (first documented case-report from Syria)

This study investigates an extremely rare variant of the Circle of Willis and the potential consequences associated with such a variant, including stroke, which is considered one of the most lethal outcomes. The study highlights the importance of investigating the association between this variant and the incidence and frequency of stroke. The patient in the study developed stroke twice and atherosclerosis due to this variant.
