✓ A case of giant traumatic false aneurysm of the intracranial internal carotid artery (ICA) with a concomitant carotid-cavernous fistula is reported. The fistula and the aneurysm persisted after ipsilateral cervical ICA ligation was performed elsewhere. Successful obliteration of the aneurysm and the fistula, with preservation of cross filling of the ipsilateral middle cerebral artery system, was accomplished by ligation of the intracranial ICA proximal to the origin of the posterior communicating artery with a 7–0 prolene suture, followed by transaneurysmal packing of the fistula.

✓ The authors report a case of an iatrogenic carotid—cavernous fistula (CCF) associated with intracranial angioplasty. Angioplasty was performed using a 3 × 10-mm Open Sail coronary balloon in a patient with high-grade stenosis of the left cavernous internal carotid artery (ICA). After angioplasty, a perforation developed in the cavernous ICA, resulting in a CCF. A 3.5 × 9—mm S670 coronary stent was used to treat the fistula. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first reported case in which a CCF developed after angioplasty was performed using a coronary balloon. Long-term angiographic and clinical evaluation is needed to test the suitability and durability of intracranial angioplasty and stent placement in the treatment of symptomatic intracranial stenosis.

✓ Experience with surgical clipping of 16 large and nine giant aneurysms of the intradural internal carotid artery (ICA) is described. Reconstruction of the parent artery with part of the aneurysmal wall was necessary in the majority of cases. Multiple clips were required for satisfactory clipping in 20 cases. Complications related to the clipping procedure comprised occlusion and stenosis of the parent carotid artery in isolated cases. Straightening of the parent carotid artery with consequent kinking of the middle cerebral artery was seen in three cases of an aneurysm with a dome directed ventrally in the proximal segment of the ICA. The factors that caused straightening of the ICA are analyzed. It was observed that an excessive change in the direction of the ICA can cause cerebral infarction.

✓ A case of coexisting proatlantal intersegmental artery and primitive trigeminal artery is described. These anomalies were incidental findings in a patient with hemiparesis due to occlusion of the middle cerebral artery. The primitive trigeminal artery had an asymptomatic aneurysm at its origin from the internal carotid artery.

✓ The authors report a case of a high-flow posttraumatic carotid-cavernous fistula, with complete steal of the blood flow from the ipsilateral internal carotid artery (ICA). Direct attack on the intracavernous carotid artery was performed using the approach of Parkinson with temporary isolation of the ICA. Complete transection of the artery within the cavernous sinus was encountered. The fistula was occluded by clipping the two ends of the ICA within the sinus. The implications of this previously unreported finding are discussed.

✓ The authors report a case in which the cause of a “spontaneous” carotid-cavernous fistula could not be demonstrated by selective angiography of external and internal carotid arteries. However, postmortem study of the cavernous sinuses revealed an unsuspected ruptured aneurysm of the internal carotid artery at the origin of the meningohypophyseal branch.

✓The authors report and discuss two cases in which collateral circulation could be angiographically demonstrated passing through the anterior spinal artery. Case 1 proved to have occlusions of the left internal carotid artery and both vertebral arteries. The basilar artery was visualized via the anterior spinal, the primitive trigeminal, and primitive otic arteries. The presence of multiple vascular malformations and an abnormal anterior spinal artery suggested that the latter had been functioning as collateral circulation since an embryonic stage. In Case 2, both internal carotids and both vertebral arteries were occluded by arteriosclerotic changes. It was assumed that the deleted anterior spinal artery visualized angiographically had developed into a collateral circulation with increasing age.
