Bilateral mirror aneurysms at the origin of the posteroinferior cerebellar artery: case report and review of the literature
Abstract
We report an exceptional case of symmetrical mirror aneurysms at the origin of the posterior inferior cerebellar arteries treated by endovascular occlusion. Questions related to a correct diagnosis and treatment at this localization are discussed.
