The luminal separation of the vessel into two distinct, parallel channels that reunite distantly is known as fenestration. There is a correlation between the development of an aneurysm and the proximal portion of fenestration, although fenestrations are typically regarded as a variant of normal anatomy. We report an interesting case of an anterior communicating artery (a-comm) aneurysm, which turns out to be a ruptured fenestrated A1 segment aneurysm after digital subtraction angiography with concomitant multiple aneurysms treated by clipping along with case report and literature review.

Understanding the anatomy of the vertebral artery is essential while manipulating the craniovertebral joint during surgery. Its anomalous course in congenital atlantoaxial dislocation makes it more vulnerable to injury. Preoperative dedicated computed tomography (CT) angiography helps identify the artery's position and plan for surgical procedure.
