ABSTRACT
Here we report a case of ruptured dissecting aneurysm of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery(PICA) treated with proximal PICA coil occlusion using an endovascular technique. A 28-year-old man presented with acute severe headache and vomiting followed by seizure. At admission, he was drowsy, with diplopia and right ankle hypesthesia. Computed tomographic scans demonstrated a subarachnoid hemorrhage. Cerebral angiography demonstrated a dissecting aneurysm of the left proximal PICA. One day after the bleeding episode, he was undergone proximal PICA coil occlusion using an endovascular technique. The patient's postoperative course was uneventful. The decision that led to the choice of treatment is discussed.
