  • Title: Basilar megadolicho trunk causing obstructive hydrocephalus at the foramina of Monro.
    Author: Thiex R, Mull M.
    Journal: Surg Neurol; 2006 Feb; 65(2):199-201. PubMed ID: 16427428.
    Abstract:
    We report on a 54-year-old man with megadolicho basilar artery presenting with acute signs of raised intracranial pressure due to a compromise of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow at the level of the foramina of Monro by the basilar apex extending more than 3 cm cranially to the dorsum sellae. The diagnosis was confirmed on computed tomographic angiography and emergent CSF drainage relieved symptoms immediately.
