Misdiagnosis of a Dissecting Aneurysm as a Cerebral Aneurysm: A Preoperative Case Report

CONCLUSION: Cerebral aneurysms typically involve larger arteries with rare possibilities of stenosis. Moreover, the cerebral artery is relatively small, making it challenging for Brain Computed Tomography Angiography (CTA) to distinguish true and false lumen within blood vessels. The diagnosis of dissecting aneurysms is difficult and often susceptible to clinical misdiagnosis.PMID:37678872
