Abstract
- We experienced a case of middle cerebral artery-distal internal carotid artery bypass surgery for treating a ruptured cerebral aneurysm in a 50-year-old female who also had a descending aortic dissection and a past history of receiving a Bentall operation for an ascending aortic dissection 7 years previously. The patient successfully underwent surgery and we report on this experience along with a brief review of the relevant literature.
