  • Title: Suprachiasmal carotid-ophthalmic artery aneurysm--report of two cases.
    Author: Diraz A, Kobayashi S, Okudera H, Nakagawa F, Tsuji T, Toba Y.
    Journal: Neurol Med Chir (Tokyo); 1992 Dec; 32(13):952-6. PubMed ID: 1283620.
    Abstract:
    Two rare suprachiasmal carotid-ophthalmic artery aneurysms, one large and one giant, were discovered incidentally. The patients had no visual disturbances. Angiography showed superomedial projection of the sac. The aneurysms were clipped via an ipsilateral pterional approach. A suprachiasmal carotid-ophthalmic artery aneurysm is indicated when preoperative angiography reveals a superomedial carotid-ophthalmic artery aneurysm without visual disturbances. Direct surgery to clipp a suprachiasmal aneurysm should be carried out to prevent rupture of these frequently large aneurysms.
