Abstract
The first descriptions of neurological symptoms in vascular diseases of the cerebellum and brainstem were based on detailed anatomic work [6, 7, 9, 11, 12]. With the progress in neuroradiology and microsurgery, the anatomic variability of these areas became of interest again, especially the vascular supply. We therefore examined in an anatomic study the route of the superior cerebellar artery (SCA) and the territories supplied.
