Abstract:
Aneurysms in the internal carotid artery, specifically the ophthalmic artery segment, have a lower incidence than any other type of aneurysm. Cases showing simultaneous intracranial aneurysms and meningiomas are extremely rare. This report shares a case of an adult female diagnosed with a deep temporal lobe meningioma concurrent with bilateral internal carotid artery-ophthalmic segment aneurysms. One-stage surgery with coronal incisions and a right frontotemporal craniotomy was performed for this patient. The lesion was first removed along the tumor margin, and the anterior clinoid process was removed. The aneurysm was clipped using an aneurysm clip. The frontal lobe was lifted from the right side, the optic chiasm was separated, the left internal carotid artery was exposed and ophthalmic segment of the left internal carotid artery aneurysm was clipped using a combination of two cross-vessel clips.
