Reversal of seven-year old visual field defect with extracranial-intracranial arterial anastomosis.
A variety of neurologic deficits has been reversed following extracranial-intracranial arterial anastomoses. We are presenting an unusual case of complete resolution of a documented seven-year-old defect in the right homonymous visual fields following anastomosis of the superficial temporal artery and the angular branch of the middle cerebral artery.
