Intraventricular aneurysm of the medial posterior choroid artery clipped via the contralateral transcallosal approach

  • Published:
Acta Neurochirurgica Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

In lesions located in the lateral ventricle of the dominant hemisphere the contralateral transcallosal approach provides maximum protection of the dominant side as well as excellent visualization of the cella media of the contralateral lateral ventricle. We demonstrated this safe approach in a rare case with intraventricular aneurysm of the left medial choroid artery. The literature on aneurysms in the lateral ventricle is discussed.
