A persisting primitive trigeminal artery (PPTA) is present in 0.2 – 0.6% of all cerebral angiographies. 27 cases of PPTA aneurysms have been reported. We present a case with sixth cranial nerve palsy due to a non ruptured aneurysm on a persisting primitive trigeminal artery. The aneurysm was successfully occluded with Guglielmi Detachable Coils with preservation of the parent artery. The cranial nerve palsy resolved and recovery was uneventful.

Here, we present a 32-year-old male with proptosis and chemosis of the left eye following a close head injury. Digital subtraction angiography of the left internal carotid artery showed a left carotid-cavernous fistula (CCF) associated with a primitive trigeminal artery (PTA) variant. The patient was successfully treated with transvenous Guglielmi detachable coils embolization via the inferior petrosal sinus. The PTA variant was preserved without cerebellar or brainstem infarct.
