| Popis: | Several endovascular approaches have been used in the treatment of dissecting aneurysms of the vertebrobasilar system. We present a case of a bilateral spontaneous vertebral artery (VA) dissecting aneurysms presenting with a subarachnoid haemorrhage. The dominant left VA aneurysm was treated with a stent-within-a-stent construct and the contralateral VA aneurysm was proximally occluded, with no complications, by an unintentional mechanically-induced arterial occlusion. |
