Abstract
✓ Four cases are described to illustrate the ability of cavernous sinography to detect coincidental aneurysms or anomalies of the infraclinoid carotid artery. Sinography may be used as a preliminary step before a transsphenoidal operation, in order to identify the small proportion of cases in which arteriography should be performed.Keywords
