[Bilateral giant carotid-ophthalmic aneurysm. Clinical case]

The author describe a patient with bilateral giant aneurysms of the internal carotid artery in the region of the ophthalmic artery. These lesions are very rare and can be mistakenly diagnosed as intracranial tumors on the basis of the clinical presentation and CT findings alone. The correct diagnosis is made via cerebral panangiography and a successful surgical treatment for this pathology is often available.
