Ruptured internal carotid artery aneurysm at the origin of a perforating artery associated with a hyperplastic anomalous anterior choroidal artery--case report.

abstract：:Blood blister-like aneurysms are dangerous aneurysms with fragile walls arising from the supraclinoid internal carotid artery (ICA). Primary treatment of these aneurysms in the acute stage is challenging, due to the substantial risk of periprocedural bleeding. We describe a series of 4 patients who presented with rupt...
