Serpentine Cavernous Aneurysm Presented with Visual Symptoms Improved by Endovascular Coil Trapping

ABSTRACT

This report describes a case of a serpentine fusiform aneurysm of the internal carotid artery in a patient who presented with visual disturbances. The serpentine aneurysm was treated successfully by coil trapping and occlusion of the parent artery, accompanied by balloon dilation. Nine months post-operatively, the patient's visual acuity had improved considerably.
