Abstract
BACKGROUND: The fetal-type posterior cerebral artery (PCA) is defined as a variant anatomy in which the posterior communicating artery (PCOM) is larger than the hypoplastic or aplastic P1 segment of the PCA. The authors present the novel case of a patient with a duplicated right PCA in parallel with fetal-type and conventional PCAs supplying adjacent components of the PCA cerebral territory. OBSERVATIONS: A 59-year-old woman presented with a modified Fisher Scale score 4 subarachnoid hemorrhage. A right irregular PCOM aneurysm that measured 9.5 mm × 4.5 mm × 4.5 mm arose from the base of a variant branch supplying a portion of the PCA, rather than a conventional PCOM, and was found on digital subtraction angiography. Following endovascular coil embolization, the patient was discharged home. LESSONS: The fetal-type variant has implications for thromboembolic events. If an embolism occludes the anterior circulation in a patient with a fetal-type PCA, it may result in an infarct in the PCA territory. Awareness of cerebral arterial anatomy, including an atypical collateral supply, informs a treating team's latitude in tolerance of which sites must be preserved and which can be safely sacrificed. https://thejns.org/doi/10.3171/CASE23735.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
