Abstract:
The authors present a case of non-mycotic aneurysm arising from the marginal branch of the left superior cerebellar artery(SCA) in a 65-year-old female. Cerebral angiography disclosed a saccular aneurysm(3x3 mm) at the origin of marginal branch of the left SCA. The aneurysm was successfully clipped through the infratentorial-supracerebellar approach. Since the aneurysm from the marginal branch of the SCA is rare, we reported here briefly.
