Abstract
Introduction: Though thrombosis of a giant aneurysm is a common entity, the phenomenon of embolic phenomenon from an angiographically negative thrombosed aneurysm causing ischemic infarction is a very rare entity.
Case Report: Herein we report a case of an ischemic episode from a thrombosed giant aneurysm which was angiographically occult. We then discuss the management and outcome in a 32-year-old female.
Conclusion: Embolic phenomenon from an angiographically negative giant aneurysm can impose dilemma in the management plan. This differential should always be placed in mind while dealing with lesions in the vascular territory and correct algorithm should be taken in planning the correct therapeutic approach for the same.
