Background: Fusiform aneurysms (FA) of the anterior cerebral artery (ACA) are found rarely. The common clinical presentation is a subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Surgery is the main treatment to prevent rebleeding.
Case Description: The authors present a case report of the ruptured FA of the ACA. The presented case demonstrates the successful microsurgical clipping of the fusiform ACA aneurysm.
Conclusion: A1-segment FA can lead to SAH with poor prognosis. The main goal of surgical treatment is to prevent rebleeding. Direct microsurgical clipping is one of the surgical options.
