Description
Oneda Çibuku and co-authors present a 2026 conference case report about a rare blood vessel variant that can look like a stroke. The variant is a persistent trigeminal artery, an early vessel link that stays open into adult life. In most people the link causes no symptoms at all.
The report follows a woman aged sixty-seven who came in with dizziness, double vision, and pain near the left eye. Scans showed the variant vessel on the left side, with no burst vessel and no stroke damage. Her symptoms cleared on their own, and she stayed well at follow-up. The authors urge careful vessel scans when eye nerve weakness has no clear cause.
