Abstract
|
|
|
|
A 33-year-old man initially presented with posterior neck swelling. He subsequently underwent removal of a brain stem tumor via a far lateral transcondylar approach four weeks prior to representation due to complications. A giant aneurysm originating from the extracranial vertebral artery was identified via digital subtraction angiography (DSA). Due to subsequent surgical exploration on the high cervical area, a pseudoaneurysm was found in it. In this paper, we describe the clinical presentation and treatment of this post-operative complication of a posterior fossa skull base approach.
