A solid understanding of the pathophysiology of a posterior cerebral artery (PCA) stroke as well as the syndrome relating to it, requires adequate knowledge of the structures and vascular anatomy of the brain. Anterior and posterior circulations provide the primary blood circulation of the brain. Bo...

Objective: Aneurysms of the posterior cerebral artery (PCA) are uncommon. Because of their low incidence, only 5 series with more than 30 patient cases have been reported. The treatment of PCA aneurysms is challenging because of the high frequency of fusiform aneurysms and closeness to important neu...

Purpose: To investigate the safety and efficacy of endovascular embolization of cerebral aneurysms at the P1–P3 segments of the posterior cerebral artery (PCA). Materials and Methods: Seventy-seven patients with 77 PCA aneurysms who were treated with endovascular embolization were enrolled, inclu...

Background and purpose: We present a retrospective review of our experience in the endovascular treatment of posterior cerebral artery (PCA) aneurysms. We detail the anatomic location of these aneurysms, the technique of endovascular treatment, morphologic results, and clinical outcome. We also disc...

Purpose To review management, clinical and imaging outcomes of dissecting posterior cerebral artery (PCA) aneurysms with emphasis on endovascular management in the form of parent vessel occlusion (PVO) at a tertiary care center. Methods Thirty-six dissecting PCA aneurysms (19 ruptured) encoun...

Basilar artery aneurysms account for a small percentage of intracranial aneurysms; however, they are a diverse group of lesions necessitating different treatment techniques for those that are ruptured and unruptured. Basilar apex aneurysms are the most common type and are frequently wide-necked, nec...
