Among cases of supratentorial infarction, 10 - 15% involve the entire middle cerebral artery (MCA) territory. The occlusion of MCA leads to a mortality of around 80%. Over the last 10 years, decompressive hemicraniectomy for management of MCA infarction has been implemented at many neurosurgical centres all over the world. Although the mortality rate in patients ≥ 60 years of age was high, the result of surgical decompression showed an improvement in functional outcome and mortality rate compared with medical management. Of 75 patients who underwent decompressive craniectomy for middle cerebral artery infarction, one case suffered from MCA and ipsilateral posterior cerebral artery infarction. This case was successfully operated. We report the rare case and review the relevant literature. * Keywords: Middle cerebral artery infarction; Cerebral stroke; Ipsilateral posterior cerebral artery infarction.
