  • Title: Ruptured vertebrobasilar junction aneurysm associated with basilar artery fenestration.
    Author: Eustacchio S, Klein GE, Pendl G.
    Journal: Acta Neurochir (Wien); 1997; 139(10):923-7. PubMed ID: 9401651.
    Abstract:
    A case of a ruptured saccular aneurysm arising from the proximal portion of a partially duplicated basilar artery in a 36-year-old woman is reported. CT and lumbar puncture confirmed subarachnoid haemorrhage. Cerebral angiography detected a vertebrobasilar junction aneurysm associated with basilar artery fenestration. The patient underwent successful clipping and coating of the aneurysm by a right lateral suboccipital osteoclastic approach. Embryological development, pathogenesis, diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties of this vascular malformation are discussed in this report.
