文摘A giant basilar artery aneurysm of young woman with endocrine disturbance was misdiagnosed as a large pituitary adenoma and treated surgically via a trans-sphenoidal approach was planned. But the neurosurgery was finally aborted because of massive bleeding during the procedure. One year later,a cerebral angiography confirmed this basilar artery aneurysm was obviously regressed and then endovascular coiling was successfully performed. No neurological complication occurred post-procedure and the endocrine dysfunction symptom was obviously improved.
