Description
Sarah Zamri and co-authors present a 2025 study on treating a rare aneurysm in a brain artery. The artery feeds the lower back of the brain, and its aneurysms have complex shapes. Coil treatment through a vessel cannot ease pressure on the brain, which shapes choices. The team reviewed cases at their center from 2022 to 2023 and the wider literature.
Fourteen of 157 aneurysm cases were of this rare type. Sites ran from near the spine to far along the artery. Most patients had surgery with clipping, and three had vessel-based care. Good outcome scores were seen in ten patients at discharge. No factor tied clearly to outcome in the small sample. The authors build a guide by site.
