    Abstract:
    Pseudoaneurysm on the distal anterior cerebral artery (ACA) is rare but potentially fatal. It usually cannot be treated with typical treatment modalities. A 47-year-old female patient was diagnosed with a ruptured aneurysm on the pericallosal artery (PerA). During surgical exploration, it was found to be a pseudoaneurysm and could not be treated with clipping. We performed surgical trapping of the involved segment of the proximal PerA followed by side-to-side anastomosis between the ipsilateral PerA and the callosomarginal artery. The patient recovered without any neurologic deficit. This new method of anastomosis could be an alternative option.
