Marathon is rarely used in coil embolization for an aneurysm; particularly, there have been no reports about distal anterior cerebral artery aneurysms. We have reported a case of successful use of Marathon in coil embolization in case of a distal anterior cerebral artery aneurysm. The patient was an 83-year-old woman. She had undergone coil emboliz...

Context 1
... visited our hospital with a complaint of headache, and an unruptured distal ACA aneurysm was incidentally found by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination. Cerebral angiography showed a saccular aneurysm with a maximum diameter of 4.9 mm, a height of 4.5 mm, and a neck of 2.3 mm at the bifurcation of the pericallosal-callosomarginal artery of the right ACA ( Figures 1A-1B). Although she was elderly, she strongly hoped for its treatment, so we planned to perform coil embolization. ...

Purpose
Differentiating normal anatomical variants such as an infundibulum or a vascular loop from true intracranial aneurysms is crucial for patient management. We hypothesize that high-resolution 7 T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) improves the detection and characterization of normal anatomical variants that may otherwise be misdiagnosed as sma...
