Abstract

The persistent primitive trigeminal artery (PPTA) is the most common carotid-basilar anastomosis, and the incidence of cerebral aneurysms associated with the PPTA is approximately 4%. Since PPTA aneurysms often have a wide neck and other vascular anomalies, endovascular treatment using an adjunctive technique is the current first-line therapy. Here, we report a case of PPTA aneurysm treated by coil embolization with a stent-assisted technique. A detailed evaluation of the size and course of all vessels and collateral flow, including the Allcock test and balloon test occlusion, is necessary when deciding on the treatment strategy.
