Non-ruptured large dorsal internal carotid artery aneurysm presenting with temporal quadrantanopsia

A 63-year-old woman presenting with temporal lower quadrantanopsia of the right eye was found to have a large dorsal internal carotid artery aneurysm. Large dorsal aneurysms of the internal carotid artery are rare. Lateral compression of the optic nerve by the aneurysm might damage the optic nerve at the medial side of the right optic foramen. Direct clipping surgery was performed uneventfully. Since the dome of the aneurysm was buried in the frontal lobe and also attached to the anterior skull base, a careful approach to the aneurysm with removal of the anterior clinoid process and drilling into the planum sphenoidale around the aneurysm dome was needed. The surgical strategy is discussed.
