Abstract
-
A 64-year-old female presented with subarachnoid hemorrhage due to rupture of a rare true posterior communicating (P-com) artery aneurysm, which is arising from P-com artery itself. A saccular aneurysm was successfully clipped. An awareness of this rare aneurysm is stressed in order to avoid operative complications.
