DACA Aneurysm Presenting as Ischemic Stroke

Abstract

Aneurysms rarely present with features of ischemic stroke. The data on treatment of such strokes is limited. We present a case of multiple aneurysms and an ischemic stroke caused by distal anterior cerebral artery (DACA) aneurysm treated with flow diverter placement, the first case of endovascular treatment of DACA aneurysmal ischemic stroke reported to our knowledge.
