ABSTRACT

The studies of the vascularization of the cerebrum in raccoon dog were performed on 60 cerebral hemispheres. The middle cerebral artery is the strongest vessel supplying blood to the cerebrum. The artery gets divided into ten permanent branches. Two olfactory arteries supply the region of the cerebrum located on the border between the old and the new cortex. The other eight supply the region of the new cortex: three branches aiming at the frontal lobe, two branches at the parietal lobe and three temporal branches aiming at temporal area. The frontal, parietal and temporal branches descended independently from the main trunk of the middle cerebral artery or formed a common trunk. Common trunks for respective groups of branches have been described as the anterior, superior and posterior middle cerebral artery. In 5% of cases there were two independent branches of the middle cerebral artery extending from the rostral cerebral artery.

Key words: telencephalon, vascularity, raccoon dog.
