A 57-year-old woman who presented with a sudden severe headache and subsequently diagnosed with a subarachnoid hemorrhage was referred to our hospital. CTA revealed a large irregularly shaped dissecting aneurysm of the right vertebral artery (VA) and a small round distal aneurysm of the right posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA), which originated just proximal to the VA aneurysm. We diagnosed the VA aneurysm as a ruptured aneurysm and performed endovascular treatment the day the patient was hospitalized. Because the left VA was aplastic, stent-assisted coiling was performed to preserve the blood flow of the right VA, following the administration of antiplatelets and heparin. The proximal part of the laser-cut closed-cell stent jailed the orifice of the right PICA. The postoperative course was uneventful, and she was discharged from the hospital 3 weeks later without any neurological deficits. The follow-up VA angiogram revealed complete disappearance of the distal PICA aneurysm 17 months after stent jailing. Flow reduction by stent jailing of the arterial orifice is considered to be the main mechanism of aneurysmal shrinkage. Jailing of the orifice of the cerebral artery using even a low-metal-coverage stent may cause arterial flow reduction, which may shrink a distal aneurysm.
