“…1) Some patients with excess blood vessels develop cerebral aneurysms, but DMCA aneurysms arising at its origin are rare, although their incidence remains to be clarified. In all, 11 patients with unruptured aneurysms at the origin, [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] including an autopsy case reported by Crompton et al 1) have been reported. The 12 patients, including the present case, are summarized in Table 1.…”

Treatment of an unruptured aneurysm at the origin of duplicated middle cerebral artery (DMCA) by coil embolization using balloon remodeling has not been reported. We report a case of coil embolization using balloon remodeling for an unruptured aneurysm at the origin of DMCA. Case Presentation: A 71-year-old female was found to have an unruptured aneurysm at the origin of DMCA during an examination for headache. Coil embolization using balloon remodeling for the wide neck aneurysm to preserve both the internal carotid artery (ICA) and DMCA was successful. The perioperative course was uneventful. Conclusion: This treatment enables complete embolization, and preserves both the ICA and DMCA. Thus, it is useful for aneurysms at the origin of DMCA.
