Zusammenfassung:Pediatric cerebral aneurysms are rare, and pediatric anterior choroidal artery aneurysms are very rarely reported. A 14-month-old male with no personal or family history of connective tissue disorders or Moyamoya disease presented with a right temporal intracerebral hemorrhage with intraventricular extension. CTA was negative for vascular pathology, but digital subtraction angiography revealed an anterior choroidal artery aneurysm that was successfully coiled. This case underscores the importance of performing digital subtraction angiography in children presenting with intracerebral hemorrhage concerning for vascular pathology even if non-invasive vascular imaging is negative.
