Abstract:
True congenital saccular aneurysms of distal posterior inferior cerebellar arteries are rare. We describe a 29 year-old female patient with subarachnoid hemorrhage in whom a nonmycotic saccular aneurysm arising from the tonsillomedullary segment of the left posterior cerebellar artery was demonstrated. This aneurysm was successfully clipped with good postoperative result. Brief review of the literature is also presented.
