Posterior Inferior Cerebellar Artery Double Reimplantation Bypass for Treatment of a Dolichoectatic Posterior Inferior Cerebellar Artery Aneurysm: A Technical Report
PICA aneurysms are uncommon and difficult to treat because of their location and complex anatomy, often requiring unique bypass techniques. This case was further complicated by a thrombus formation, which was likely caused by pathological aneurysmal tissue being incorporated in the bypass. This case required an unconventional bypass construct that proved to be effective.
