Abstract

Abstract: A 63-year-old woman presented with a ruptured dissecting aneurysm (DA) at the right M2 region of the angular branches. This report describes a rare case of middle cerebral artery DA presenting with a subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH); the patient was successfully treated with endovascular internal trapping of the DA, without a bypass surgery.
