Abstract:
Fenestrations of anterior cerebral arteries are rare anomalies, which may be associated with saccular aneurysms at the fenestration itself or other intracranial vessels. This association is not infrequently the cause of angiographic diagnostic problem, as well as surgical difficulties. We report a case of aneurysm arising from a fenestrated proximal anterior cerebral artery that was confirmed at surgery and discuss together with a review of the literature.
