Abstract
Stroke is prevalent across patient populations and is the fifth
commonest cause of death if considered separately from
other cardiovascular diseases, thus accounting for significant
morbidity and mortality. Infarcts involving the territory of the
anterior cerebral artery (ACA) are uncommon due to
significant collateral blood supply from anterior
communicating artery. Infarction of the ACA territory
accounts for only 0.3% to 4.4% of cerebral infarctions
reported. Bilateral ACA infarction is even rarer. (1,2) We
would like to present a case of 60 years old male who has
presented to us with bilateral ACA infarct.
