Abstract
Childhood intracranial aneurysms are a rare entity. Diagnosis of intracranial aneurysms in infancy may be difficult because of their infrequency and confusing clinical presentation. Findings with routine radiographic methods may be misleading and difficult to interpret. This case report entails a giant aneurysm arising from the right internal carotid artery (RICA) in an 8-month-old child. © 2015 The College of Radiographers.
