Abstract
Occlusion of all the main arteries involved in the blood supply to the brain is extremely rare, develops slowly and can occur with both pronounced symptoms and minor manifestations. Vascular damage can be at different levels, depending on this, there are different ways of collateral blood flow, which are of great importance. The review discusses the methods of visualization and treatment for this pathology.
