Abstract

This article presents the clinical case of successful surgical treatment of patient suffered from rare and complex cerebrovascular pathology - giant partially thrombosed ophthalmic aneurysm of left internal carotid artery, manifesting with dislocation syndrome and development of right-sided hemiparesis. The aneurysm dimensions were 49х52х49 mm (sagittal/vertical/axial) according to brain CT data, the midline shift was 17 mm to the right. The following operative treatment was performed: left-sided pterional craniotomy, performing of extracranial-to-intracranial low flow bypass between frontal branch of left superficial artery and cortical branch of left middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA bypass); the clipping of aneurismal neck, thrombectomy and resection of aneurismal sac. This presented clinical case demonstrates the defensibility of STA-MCA bypass in case of necessity of long temporary trepping while performing the reconstructive operations because of giant cerebral aneurysms.
