A patients with a giant fusiform aneurysm of the left inferior trunkus of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) is presented. The size of the aneurysm was 5 cm at its largest diameter.

Adequate flow in the reconstructed MCA trunkus was maintained. This rare case is discussed in the light of the literature.
