Giant distal pica aneurysm with mass effect in the posterior fossa

Year 1998, Volume: 11 Issue: 2, 107 - 112, 01.03.1998

Abstract

Giant intracranial aneurysms are not uncommon, accounting for about 5% of all intracranial aneurysms, however, giant aneurysms of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA) are quite rare. PICA aneurysms, comprise 0,5-3% of all aneurysms. Distal PICA aneurysms constitute 15% of them. Rarely, they manifest the clinical signs of a posterior fossa mass lesion.

The authors present a case of giant PICA aneurysm. It was successfuly excised without any neurological deficit.
