The arc of Riolan (AOR) is an anastomosis between the middle and left colic arteries. Aneurysms of the AOR are very rare visceral artery aneurysms. A 44-year-old man presented with abdominal pain and loss of consciousness. Computed tomography and angiography showed hemorrhagic ascites around the liver and spleen. An irregularly dilated artery was visible within a hematoma in the upper left region of the abdomen, consistent with a ruptured pseudoaneurysm of the AOR. Transcatheter arterial embolization was performed with microcoils. The patient's abdominal pain disappeared after embolization, and no symptoms of intestinal ischemia were observed. To our knowledge, this is the first case of an AOR aneurysm with AOR dilation due to dissection of the celiac artery that was successfully treated by coil embolization.

Addressing residual and recurrent aneurysms post-Woven EndoBridge device embolization: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Early literature on the Woven EndoBridge (WEB) device reported 80-90% adequate aneurysm occlusion but low complete occlusion (40-55%). It is uncertain whether residual or recurrent aneurysms require re-treatment to prevent future rupture.
Objective: To systematically review the literature to meta-analyze occlusion and complication rates after re-treatment of these aneurysms.
Successful Management of Thyrocervical Trunk Aneurysm Ruptured into the Thoracic Cavity After Cesarean Section in Nonstable Patient with Neurofibromatosis Type I.

Rupture of the thyrocervical trunk aneurysm into the thoracic cavity does not occur very often. It is an urgent condition due to hemorrhagic shock by massive hemothorax with potentially fatal consequences. Pregnancy and puerperium are additional risk factors for a rupture of the thyrocervical trunk aneurysm in patients with neurofibromatosis and aneurysms.

A 73-year-old male with a history of incidentally diagnosed Paget disease of bone affecting the skull and left orbit 2 years prior presented with 3 months of vision loss, proptosis, and periorbital swelling of the OS. Examination showed best-corrected Snellen visual acuity of 20/150 in the affected eye, intact motility, 7 mm of relative proptosis, significant dilated and tortuous "corkscrew" conjunctival vessels, serous choroidal and retinal detachments, optic nerve hyperemia, and venous tortuosity and dilation. Although the bony lesions in the left orbit were stable from 1 year prior on imaging, the diagnostic angiogram demonstrated osseous blush and hypervascularity of the lesion.

Department of Neurosurgery, Haukeland University Hospital, Bergen, Norway.
Purpose: Carotid-cavernous fistulas (CCFs) are treated almost exclusively by endovascular techniques, but the frequency of treatments is limited in smaller centers. We analyzed all CCFs treated in our hospital to determine if high-quality treatment of CCFs can be provided in a medium-volume neurovascular center.
Methods: Retrospective quality-control cohort study.

Background: Neuroendovascular treatment of cerebral aneurysms is considered a basic procedure for neurosurgeons and interventional neuroradiologists; however, its critical technical nuances, termed "tacit knowledge," are challenging to impart. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of our novel video recording and editing method in enhancing trainees' experience.
Methods: A wearable camera (wearable recording) and multiple media sources in a hybrid operating room (hybrid recording) were used to capture procedural details such as audio and conversation, thus enabling a re-experience.
