Objective: Cerebral aneurysms (ANs) in the cortical segment (CS) of the distal posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA) with a vertebral artery (VA) of aortic origin are markedly rare. Endovascular therapy was performed to treat subarachnoid hemorrhage caused by a ruptured cerebral AN.
Case Presentation: The patient was a 68-year-old female who was transported to emergency care for headache. Detailed examination revealed an AN in the CS of the PICA with a left VA of distal aortic origin from the left subclavian artery (LT. SA). Endovascular therapy using n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate (NBCA) was performed to treat the cerebral AN, resulting in a favorable outcome.
Conclusion: Endovascular therapy for cerebral ANs is an effective treatment method.
