We present the case of a two-year and seven-month-old boy with a partially-thrombosed giant lobulated aneurysm in the supraclinoid portion of the internal carotid artery. He presented with several months of symptoms of progressive frontal headache and visual loss. CT revealed a large lobulated suprasellar mass lesion mimicking a craniopharyngioma. After the aneurysm was successfully obliterated by an endovascular procedure, regression of the giant aneurysm was confirmed on followed-up MRI. The differential diagnosis, possible etiologies, and the endovascular technique for pediatric patient will be discussed.
