ABSTRACT
A case of dissecting aneurysm in a 5-year-old girl without a pre-existing predisposing factor is presented. Her clinical presentation in spite of being typical, did not progress to severe deficit. The diagnosis was achieved by 2D and 3D-TOF MRI studies after the indirect indications of the CT studies after the accident. This case study emphasizes the possible presentation s in children. This diagnosis in the pediatric age-group is difficult and is probably the reason for the very few cases reported
