French term

en correspondance du segment communicant

French to English Medical Medical (general)
A medical report for a patient that has suffered two aneurysms

fevrier 2017, réalisation d'une artériographie cérébrale diagnostique qui rétrouve un anéurisme du siphon carotidien gauche, en correspondance du segment communicant, mesurant 3.4 mm de collet

I am unsure about this wording, can anyone help?

Kind regards

It arises from a fusion of small perforators into one artery during fetal life. This vessel departs from the anterior cerebral artery in the A1 or A2 segment, most often in the area of anterior communicating artery.

The communicating segment, or terminal segment, or C7, of the internal carotid artery passes between the optic and oculomotor nerves to the anterior perforated substance at the medial extremity of the lateral cerebral fissure.

The segments of the internal carotid artery are as follows:

Cervical segment, or C1, identical to the commonly used Cervical portion
Petrous segment, or C2
Lacerum segment, or C3
C2 and C3 compose the commonly termed Petrous portion
Cavernous segment, or C4, almost identical to the commonly used Cavernous portion
Clinoid segment, or C5. This segment is not identified in some earlier classifications and lies between the commonly used cavernous portion and cerebral or supraclinoid portion.
Ophthalmic, or supraclinoid segment, or C6
Communicating, or terminal segment, or C7

Also found this:

PcomA aneurysms have a special relationship with a part of the ICA called carotid siphon. We have found a considerable range of shapes and angle sizes in the carotid siphon of patients with and without aneurysms, which may affect hemodynamic stress on the ICA-PcomA junction, thereby promoting aneurysm formation in that segment15. However, only a few studies mention the carotid siphon as an anatomical variable involved in the incidence of intracranial aneurysms16.

Hi,
I think you are safe with "communicating segment" I did wonder if this was another name for "posterior communicating artery", but it isn't, see:

Branches
Except for the terminal segment (C7), the odd numbered segments usually have no branches. The even numbered segments (C2, C4, C6) often have branches, although they are inconstant and usually small, therefore often not visualized even on high-resolution digital subtraction angiography. The exception is the ophthalmic artery, which is seen in nearly all cases 3.

C1: cervical segment, none
C2: petrous (horizontal) segment
caroticotympanic artery
Vidian artery
C3: lacerum segment, none
C4: cavernous segment
meningohypophyseal trunk
inferolateral trunk
capsular arteries (of McConnell)
C5: clinoid segment, none
C6: ophthalmic (supraclinoid) segment
ophthalmic artery
superior hypophyseal artery
C7: communicating segment
posterior communicating artery
anterior choroidal artery
anterior cerebral artery
middle cerebral artery
