Zusammenfassung:The optimal endovascular treatment method of ruptured basilar artery dissection still remains controversial. We reported a case with ruptured basilar artery dissection involving the left anterior inferior cerebellar artery. The dissecting aneurysm was successfully treated with two overlapping Low-profile Visualized Intraluminal Support stents and the preservation of antegrade blood flow of the anterior inferior cerebellar artery was achieved. Three-month and six-month follow-ups revealed good clinical and angiographic results, although controversies regarding long-term stability remained to be addressed.
