Two side-to-side bypasses were performed in a single surgery to connect the pericallosal and callosomarginal arteries of both sides, distally to the aneurysm. Subsequently, an endovascular embolization of the aneurysm was achieved with coils.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The patency of the microanastomoses, performed in the anterior interhemispheric fissure, was positively evaluated intraoperatively with indocyanine green and fluorescein videoangiography. The aneurysm sac, together with proximal A2 segment, was completely occluded with platinum coils. At the last follow-up, computed tomography angiography confirmed the patency of both bypasses, without any sign of aneurysm recanalization.
