Abstract We report a case of complex large middle cerebral artery (MCA) bifurcation aneurysm that ruptured during dissection from the very adherent MCA branches but was successfully clipped and the MCA bifurcation reconstructed using 4 Yasargill clips. Through a right pterional craniotomy the sylvian fissure was largely opened as to allow enough workspace for clipping the aneurysm and placing a temporary clip on M1. The pacient recovered very well after surgery and was discharged after 1 week with no neurological deficit. Complex MCA bifurcation aneurysms can be safely reconstructed using regular clips, without the need of using fenestrated clips or complex by-pass procedures.

Postoperative remote cerebellar haemorrhage occurring distant to the operated site as its name suggests is a rare though recognized entity in neurosurgical practice. It can be potentially devastating. Over 100 cases have been described in various literatures over the years. It is postulated to be due to CSF over drainage, has been the most popular theory behind its occurrence. We report a patient who underwent pterional craniotomy for craniopharyngioma, who deteriorated 12 hours following awakening after the surgery, the cause being remote cerebellar haemorrhage.Nepal Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 15, Number 2, 2018, Page: 45-48
