Abstract

The rupture of a cerebral aneurysm can have devastating effects, with approximately 50% of patients dying within one month of rupture [1]. Aneurysms of the basilar artery are among the most prevalent of posterior circulation cerebral aneurysms [2]. Although the exact mechanisms behind their formation, growth and rupture are unknown, it is believed that hemodynamics plays an important role [3].
