A rare case of a completely thrombosed bilobed giant intracranial aneurysm of the anterior cerebral artery with spontaneous parent vessel thrombosis: case report
2019
Background
A huge spherical intracranial mass can sometimes be misdiagnosed, due to the lack of typical radiographic features. Thrombosed giant intracranial aneurysms (GIAs) are an uncommon but still a possible differential diagnosis that must be kept in mind to guarantee the best surgical approach and resection of the lesion. We describe an extremely rare case of a huge bifrontal mass mimicking a cystic echinococcosis, in which the surgery unveiled a completely thrombosed GIA of the left anterior cerebral artery (ACA).
