Role of hemoglobin and iron in hydrocephalus after neonatal intraventricular hemorrhage.

abstract：OBJECTIVE AND IMPORTANCE:Distal basilar artery aneurysms represent 5 to 8% of intracranial aneurysms. It is crucial to preserve all of the basilar apex perforating vessels when dissecting in this region. This report is the first to describe a rostral basilar perforating artery that was the anatomic origin of a cerebral...
