Multiple aneurysms of anterior intracranial circulation including a giant one are rare; progressing slowly, these “little pulsatile bumps” often present with ocular and neurological symptoms. This case reports a 70-year-old hypertensive female with multiple small and a single giant intracranial aneurysm, diagnosed on basis of ophthalmological manifestations 3 years back, and the patient still survives with these unruptured vascular deformations.
