Infantile chronic subdural hematoma with local protrusion of the skull in a case of osteogenesis imperfecta.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Classification of middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysms is sometimes difficult because the identification of the main MCA bifurcation, the key for accurate classification of MCA aneurysms, is inconsistent and somewhat subjective.
