  • Title: Intrameatal aneurysm of the anterior inferior cerebellar artery.
    Author: Zotta DC, Stati G, De Paulis D, Galzio RJ.
    Journal: J Clin Neurosci; 2011 Apr; 18(4):561-3. PubMed ID: 21257312.
    Abstract:
    Aneurysms of the distal part of the anterior-inferior cerebellar artery (AICA) are rare, with an incidence of 0.1% to 0.5%. We report a 55-year-old woman suffering from a subarachnoid hemorrhage resulting from a ruptured intrameatal aneurysm of the AICA. A left retrosigmoid craniotomy was performed and the aneurysm was clipped without post-operative deficits. Follow-up angiography demonstrated exclusion of the aneurysm, confirming preservation of the distal AICA. We review the pertinent literature and discuss clinical presentation, radiological findings and surgical management of this patient.
