Abstract: | A 52-year-old woman presented with bilateral distal anterior cerebral artery (ACA) mirror aneurysms, in addition to two right middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysms. The left distal ACA and right MCA aneurysms were clipped through right interhemispheric and right pterional craniotomies. The right distal ACA aneurysm was thrombosed. Distal ACA aneurysms tend to be multiple, but mirror aneurysms are rare, especially in the absence of congenital vascular anomaly. Single stage unilateral craniotomy is recommended for surgical treatment. |
