Endovascular treatment for a symptomatic dissecting ophthalmic artery aneurysm occurring in the orbit: illustrative case
Although POAAs are exceptionally rare, they may lead to significant visual dysfunction owing to optic nerve compression. When visual symptoms are present, prompt intervention may reverse the symptoms. Preoperative assessment of collateral circulation using BTO is essential for treatment planning. Internal trapping may be an effective strategy when sufficient collateral flow is confirmed. https://thejns.org/doi/10.3171/CASE25483.
