Presentation
CONCLUSION: The present case indicates that an intrasellar ICA aneurysm can be misdiagnosed as a macroadenoma and even present through pituitary apoplexy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

- Coronary Atherosclerosis
Restenosis rates between 24% and 38% have been reported in studies using Jomed coronary stent grafts in cases of coronary atherosclerosis, which is not different from the restenosis rates of regular bare stent placement. [ajnr.org]

Systemic examinations must be performed in patients with PSA in order to scrutinize associated anomalies or vascular disease. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The symptoms associated with lateral extension of the petrous aneurysm into the tympanic cavity include dizziness, hearing loss, vertigo and pulsatile tinnitus ( 13 ). [spandidos-publications.com]

Workup
When treating intrasellar masses with the slightest suspicion of a nonpituitary origin, further workup should be considered. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Treatment
RESULTS: In the literature, factors linked to poorer outcome were age, vascular risk factors, initial ONP severity and delay before treatment; better recovery was associated with surgical treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Detailed neurologic examinations were performed before treatment, immediately after treatment, 2 weeks after treatment, and later during follow-up. [ajnr.org]
Prognosis
BACKGROUND: Aneurysms at the posterior face of the internal carotid artery can lead to oculomotor nerve palsy (ONP) with an uncertain prognosis of recovery post-treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Older patients and those with poorer Hunt and Hess grades on admission have a poor prognosis. [en.wikipedia.org]

Etiology
This is the first case that describes mutual contribution of cystic medial degeneration and ICA kinking in carotid aneurysm disease etiology successfully treated by aneurysm resection. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Carotid free-floating thrombus (FFT) is a rare cause of ischemic stroke, usually detected during etiologic vascular studies. There is no consensus regarding the management of carotid free-floating thrombi in those patients. [revecuatneurol.com]

Pathophysiology
In contrast, the pathophysiological mechanisms and natural course of ECAA are largely unknown. Understanding the pathophysiological background may add to prediction of risk for adverse outcome and need for surgical exclusion. [journals.plos.org]
We examined the pathophysiology underlying the development of olfactory hallucinations. We found craniotomy clipping and focal resection to be useful from the standpoint of seizure control. [surgicalneurologyint.com]

Prevention
Coil embolization of the aneurysm and parent artery occlusion for the posttraumatic direct CCF was a good option to manage the abducens nerve palsy and to prevent postoperative hyperperfusion. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Although stent-assisted coil embolization alone is an effective approach for treating BBAs, it is insufficient to prevent BBA regrowth. In contrast, stent-within-a-stent and covered stenting are effective at preventing rebleeding and BBA regrowth. [medsci.org]
