摘要
An isolated chronic dissecting aneurysm of the left superior cerebellar artery was discovered incidentally in a 12-year-old girl. There was no history of any previous trauma or witnessed abnormal neurological incident at any stage during her life. She was and has since remained asymptomatic and the aneurysm has remained radiologically stable for over 3 years. A conservative approach to the management of such incidental asymptomatic lesions is thus suggested.
