THE CIRCLE OF WILLIS (CIRCULUS ARTERIOSUS [wiLLISl]) is an anastomotic circle formed at the base of the brain aboutthe pituitary body, between the branches of the internal carotidand the vertebral arteries, for the purpose of equalizing thecerebral circulation. The anterior cerebrals, from the internalcarotids, pass forward and are united in front by a short trunk,the anterior communicating. The posterior communicatingunites the internal carotid with the posterior cerebral, the latterbeing the terminal branches of the basilar, which in its turnis formed by the union of the two vertebrals.
