Enlargement of a Middle Cerebral Artery Aneurysm after Intra-Aneurysmal Embolization with Parent Artery..., We report a 77-year-old woman with marked enlargement of a middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysm 4 years after the successful intra-aneurysmal embolization of an ipsilateral large internal carotid artery (ICA) aneurysm. She intially presented with right third cranial nerve palsy due to a large ICA aneurysm, 20.8 mm in diameter., We report a 77-year-old woman with marked enlargement of a middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysm 4 years after the successful intra-aneurysmal embolization of an ipsilateral large internal carotid artery (ICA) aneurysm. She intially presented with right third cranial nerve palsy due to a large ICA aneurysm, 20.8 mm in diameter. Initial magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) revealed a signal decrease in the right MCA, suggesting hemodynamic disturbance based on the contrast pooling in the right large ICA aneurysm exhibiting “Windkessel phenomenon”., admin,
