Fenestrations and Duplications

A duplication is defined as two distinct arteries with separate origins and no distal arterial

Fenestration, by contrast, is defined as a division of the arterial lumen into distinctly separate
channels, each with its own endothelial and muscularis layers, while the adventitia may be shared.
