Abstract
We describe a case of rebleeding from an intracranial vertebral dissec ting aneurysm following proximal clipping. This case suggests that pro ximal clipping alone may not be an adequate surgical procedure to prev ent rebleeding. Surgical treatment of intracranial dissecting aneurysm s in the vertebral artery presenting as subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) is discussed.
