  • Title: Direct surgical treatment of bilateral intracavernous internal carotid artery aneurysms. Case report.
    Author: Johnston I.
    Journal: J Neurosurg; 1979 Jul; 51(1):98-102. PubMed ID: 448424.
    Abstract:
    Bilateral intracavernous internal carotid artery aneurysms are described in a 3-year-old child. The etiology was uncertain, although the aneurysms may have been mycotic. As there was clinical and radiological evidence of progressive enlargement of both aneurysms, the more conventional forms of treatment were not applicable. A direct surgical approach was made to both aneurysms with exploration of the intracavernous portion of the internal carotid artery under deep hypothermia and cardiac arrest.
