A case of a small, incidental aneurysm of the left middle cerebral artery discovered during the work-up of a transient neurological deficit. The aneurysm is located at the bifurcation of the M1 segment into a dominant superior and a smaller inferior trunk (a and b). Due to the relatively wide base and intimate relation to the inferior trunk, a single p48 MW device deployed from the superior trunk into the M1 segment covering the aneurysm and the inferior trunk was considered the most appropriate approach. The procedure was carried out uneventfully and the patient was kept on dual antiplatelet therapy for one year. The most recent follow-up angiography (d) performed after one year of the treatment shows complete obliteration of the aneurysm and unchanged morphology of the covered inferior trunk. a 3D volume rendering of the rotational angiography; b working projection demonstrating the intimate anatomic relation of the aneurysm to the inferior trunk; c deployment of the p48 MW device; d the one-year follow-up
