Endovascular therapy of ruptured distal anterior choroidal artery aneurysm associated with moyamoya pattern collateralization secondary to middle cerebral artery occlusion

Abstract We report a case of a ruptured distal anterior choroidal artery (AChoA) aneurysm associated with moyamoya pattern collateralization secondary to the middle cerebral artery occlusion. Patient was successfully treated with the coil embolization of the distal AChoA. This case supports the feas...

Summary:Abstract We report a case of a ruptured distal anterior choroidal artery (AChoA) aneurysm associated with moyamoya pattern collateralization secondary to the middle cerebral artery occlusion. Patient was successfully treated with the coil embolization of the distal AChoA. This case supports the feasibility and efficacy of the endovascular therapy for the distal AChoA aneurysms in patients with MCA occlusion with moyamoya pattern collateralization.
