Proximal A1 segment aneurysms are technically challenging aneurysms that require careful and meticulous adherence to surgical principles for optimising the outcomes. They usually present with rupture and headache and visual symptoms are uncommon due to the optic nerve not being in proximity to the aneurysm. Important, delicate perforators arise from the segment and their preservation is the key to a good surgical outcome.
