Cerebral arteries were separately cannulated and injected with latex. The vascularization patterns of the cortical branches and the variations of the arteries were investigated. The authors found that the distal ACA supplied all the inner surfaces of the frontal and parietal lobes and a median of one third of the outer surfaces. The origin of the arteries from the main trunk and their exit angles affected the vascularization patterns of the hemispheres. The authors redefine controversial terminology regarding the callosomarginal artery.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In each hemisphere, the vascularization pattern of the distal ACA is different to a greater or lesser extent.
