The carotid artery ap-peared normal; the middle cerebral artery was not explored. Postoperatively, the patient was neurologically unchanged. A right carotid arteriogram performed on the sixth postoperative day showed that the metallic fragment was lodged within the middle cerebral artery at the trifurcation. Only one branch of the middle cerebral artery distal to the fragment was patent. Six days later the middle cerebral artery was ex-posed through the previous craniotomy. Two of the three main branches were fibrous cords, the third branch was patent, and the wall of the middle cerebral artery did not appear thickened. A longitudinal arteriotomy was made over the frag-ment. The fragment was quite adherent to the arterial wall, and was separated from the wall with some difficulty. The arteriotomy was closed with continuous 6-0 Tevdek. Anticoagulants were not used. The patient had an uncomplicated course, and was neurologically unchanged postoperatively. A postoperative arteriogram showed that the middle cerebral artery was now thrombosed at its origin.Case 2. This 19-year-old American soldier received a wound of the right neck from a grenade explosion 3 days prior to admission to the 24th Evacuation Hospital. There was immediate onset of weakness of the left arm and leg following the injury. Neck exploration was performed at an-other hospital, and no vascular injury was found. The patient reported slight improvement in the left-sided weakness during the initial 3 days fol-lowing injury. Examination revealed a conscious and oriented patient. There were no cranial or fa-cial wounds. There was a sutured linear incision along the anterior border of the right sternocleidomastoid muscle. A tracheostomy tube was in place. There was a left central facial weakness. The left arm was extremely paretic, with only gross move-ment at the shoulder and elbow. There was mod-erate weakness of the left leg. Deep tendon re-flexes were diminished on the left side. Sensation
