The posterior inferior cerebellar artery originating from the internal carotid artery, associated with multiple aneurysms

Abstract

We report the rare case of ipsilateral posterior inferior cerebellar artery originating from the carotid artery, and associated with multiple concurrent aneurysms. This is the 23rd reported case of carotid-cerebellar anastomosis and the first case with three concurrent aneurysms reported in the literature. Of the 23 cases, 6 had single aneurysms, 2 had double aneurysms and the present case had triple aneurysms.
