Background: Traumatic intracranial aneurysms are rare complications after head trauma. This report describes the case of a patient with a traumatic pericallosal aneurysm.
Case Description: A 73-year-old man developed headache and lower limb paresis, and emergency computed tomography scan revealed a hematoma in the corpus callosum. We performed coil embolization for a pericallosal aneurysm, but follow-up angiography showed recurrence of the aneurysm 6 days after the surgery. We diagnosed this as a traumatic aneurysm and subsequently performed parent artery occlusion without any complications.
Conclusions: We performed parent artery occlusion for a traumatic aneurysm of the pericallosal artery without complications. Pericallosal aneurysms are rare, but we must consider them when encountering a delayed hematoma around the corpus callosum.

Anomalous left pulmonary artery: case reports exploring anatomic variants.

Background: Pulmonary artery sling (PAS) is a rare congenital anomaly where the left pulmonary artery (LPA) branches from the right pulmonary artery, compressing the trachea and esophagus and frequently leading to respiratory distress in infants. Surgical intervention, such as LPA reimplantation or translocation, is crucial to relieve airway compression and restore normal pulmonary function.
Case Presentation: This report highlights varied LPA anatomies, including a unique case of an anomalous LPA without true sling formation but causing tracheal compression, alongside two typical PAS cases.

The Artisse intrasaccular device (Medtronic) offers a novel treatment option for unruptured and ruptured wide-neck bifurcating intracranial aneurysms.1 2The Artisse device features enhancements including a distal tip for dome protection, platinum band markers for improved visibility, and a bilayer high-density platinum core nitinol mesh basket for enhanced flexibility and visibility when compared with previous devices.2-7 Data from case series demonstrate the procedural safety and efficacy of the Artisse device.

Autosomal recessive hypophosphatemic rickets type 2 (ARHR2) is an uncommon hereditary form of rickets characterised by chronic renal phosphate loss and impaired bone mineralisation. This results from compound heterozygous or homozygous pathogenic variants in ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 1 (ENPP1), a key producer of extracellular inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi) and an inhibitor of fibroblast growth factor23 (FGF23). ENPP1 deficiency impacts FGF23 and increases its activity.

Here we presented the initial experience of clipping aneurysms using fully endoscopic techniques and aimed to evaluate the safety and feasibility of fully endoscopic techniques for aneurysms. This was a retrospective single-center study in which patients were scheduled to undergo aneurysm clipping using fully endoscopic techniques. We collected patients' records, radiological neuroimaging, aneurysm-related variables and surgical procedures in detail, as well as postoperative outcomes.

Background: Flow diverters (FDs) have been introduced for the management of large or giant cavernous carotid aneurysms (CCAs) in addition to conventional modalities, dramatically changing treatment strategies. The aim of this study was to examine the management of unruptured large/giant CCAs in Japan when FDs were being introduced using a nationwide survey.
Methods: 540 unruptured large/giant CCAs treated at neurosurgical teaching departments in Japan between 2012 and 2016 were retrospectively studied.
