Vascular pathologies were noted on magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) and the diameter of the posterior communicating artery (PComA) and the P1 and P2 segments of the posterior cerebral artery determined.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title><jats:p>Most infarctions were observed in the territory of the inferolateral arteries (70.2%), followed by the paramedian (16.3%), tuberothalamic (8.7%), and posterior choroidal arteries (4.8%). Relevant vascular pathologies included stenosis of the basilar artery (4.5%), P1 segment stenosis (4.5%)\/occlusion (.9%), and P2 segment stenosis (14.4%)\/occlusion (4.5%). Paramedian thalamic infarction was associated with ipsilateral P1 segment hypoplasia\/absence (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; .001); tuberothalamic infarction with ipsilateral PComA hypoplasia\/absence (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = .08).
