Feasibility of endovascular treatment for fetal-type posterior cerebral artery aneurysm with P1 segment aplasia: illustrative case
A literature review suggests that aneurysms with saccular configuration and proximity to the P2 segment are favorable for selective coil embolization. Given the high risk of thalamic and occipital infarction associated with PAO, preserving FPCA flow should be prioritized when anatomically and technically feasible. https://thejns.org/doi/10.3171/CASE25556.
