Abstract
The trigeminal artery is the most common persistent carotid-basilar anastomotic channel observed in adult life, and its occurrence probably represents a defect in cerebrovascular development. It can be associated with other congenital abnormalities such as cerebral aneurysms, but only rarely do aneurysms of the persistent trigeminal artery itself arise. Endovascular treatment of these aneurysms has not been attempted so much. We report a case of endovascular treatment for a persistent trigeminal artery aneurysm causing isolated sixth nerve palsy.
Key Words: Persistent trigeminal artery; Aneurysm; Endovascular treatment
