Intracranial hypertension caused by a compound depressed skull fracture on the posterior part of the superior sagittal sinus is a rare condition, and nonspecific symptoms and signs can delay appropriate diagnosis and treatment. The authors report on a case of intracranial hypertension that persisted despite conservative treatment, including anticoagulation therapy, which did not improve severe flow disturbance related to the venous sinus compression. Management of this rare condition is discussed and the literature is reviewed.

The authors report on two patients with peripheral ophthalmic artery (OphA) aneurysms and demonstrate the mechanism by which these lesions are formed by using OphA color Doppler flow velocimetry imaging. During formation of these two aneurysms, the hemodynamic stress on the OphA was quite significant.
