Abstract
The case is reported of a 69-year-old woman with an 18-mm unruptured aneurysm of the right middle cerebral artery which caused a moderate stroke. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a clot inside the aneurysm that was not visible on computerized tomography scans. The danger of embolism from the clot prompted clipping of the aneurysm.Keywords
