    Summary

    This study proposes a detailed classification for vertebro-basilar aneurysms, highlighting congenital defects over blood flow in their origin. Precise microtopographic classification is crucial for diagnosis and treatment.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Vascular Surgery
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Previous research focused on internal carotid artery (ICA) and posterior cerebral artery (PCA) aneurysms.
    • A detailed classification for vertebro-basilar aneurysms is proposed.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To classify vertebro-basilar aneurysms based on origin and projection.
    • To investigate the etiological significance of congenital defects versus blood flow direction.
    • To emphasize the importance of microtopographic classification for clinical management.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of aneurysm origins at arterial bifurcations and terminal branches.
    • Observation of atypical aneurysm locations.
    • Correlation of aneurysm characteristics with arterial variations.

    Main Results:

    • Most aneurysms originate at main artery divisions or terminal branches (basilar artery [BA], ICA).
    • Vertebro-basilar junction aneurysms are of particular etiological interest.
    • Congenital defects appear more significant than blood flow in aneurysm formation.

    Conclusions:

    • A novel classification system for vertebro-basilar aneurysms is presented.
    • Microtopographic classification is essential for accurate preoperative diagnosis, surgical access, and treatment planning.
    • Further research is needed on the relationship between aneurysms and variations in the Circle of Willis.
