“…PAA is more commonly associated with multiple cerebral aneurysms than other types of intracranial aneurysms [6] . Patients with PAA experience higher morbidity and mortality than patients with other types of intracranial aneurysms due to a higher rupture rate [3] .…”

“…Most intracranial aneurysms are asymptomatic and remain unruptured. The rupture rate for PAA is approximately 4% [3] . Ruptured PAA can result in intracerebral hematoma (which is typically located in the frontal lobe), anterior interhemispheric fissure, pericallosal cistern around the corpus callosum, or subarachnoid hemorrhage [3] .…”

Pericallosal artery aneurysm (PAA) is a relatively uncommon type of intracranial aneurysm that tends to rupture more frequently and cause higher mortality rates than other types of cerebral aneurysms. Surgery to address PAA is difficult due to its deep-seated location, the size of the aneurysmal sac, and the limited surgical field. In recent years, with the development of percutaneous interventions, endovascular treatment has become the preferred, minimally invasive intervention method for the treatment of pericallosal aneurysms. In this article, we present a case of PAA that was successfully treated with flow diversion therapy in a 51-year-old male.
