P2A (anterior) segment aneurysm of posterior cerebral artery is one of the rare aneurysm of posterior circulation. We report a case of 30 years old right handed young man who presented with features of SAH in Emergency Department and cerebral angiogram confirmed left posterior cerebral artery P2A segment thrombosedfusi form aneurysm. Postoperative recovery was good except left sided ptosis after microsurgical trapping via left temporal approach. Treatment modality and outcome after intervention for P2A segment aneurysm will be discussed. Nepal Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 14, Number 3, 2017, Page : 42-45

A 54-year old male patient underwent stent reconstruction of the P1-2 segment of the left posterior cerebral artery (PCA) and concomitant coil embolization of a symptomatic giant partially thrombosed P1 segment aneurysm. After an uneventful postinterventional period, on the 7th day the patient developed severe disturbance of consciousness. The imaging workup demonstrated acute venous infarction in the midbrain, caused by the compressive occlusion of the median anterior pontomesncephalic vein by the aneurysm in the interpeduncular fossa.

A 34-year-old female patient presented with a history of sudden loss of vision in right eye. On neurological examination, she was having visual agnosia in right eye. MRI was performed which revealed left posterior cerebral artery infarct. Trans thoracic echocardiography was performed. This showed a large left atrial myxoma. Patient underwent resection and had an uneventful postoperative course. This case report showed the importance of cardiac source of emboli in patients presenting as acute stroke. Performing echocardiography and diagnosing and treating cardiac source of emboli could prevent further complications.
