Description: We report a case of a 47 year old patient with headache and Horner syndrome. The digital angiography (DA) showed a SCD. That was followed by a pseudoaneurysm. A 46 year old patient presented with a right amaurosis fugax and left hemiparesis. A SCD was diagnosed by magnetic resonance angiography. It presented with a pseudoaneurysm.
Intervention: Both pseudoaneurysm were treated with stents.
Conclusion: DA is the method of choicefor the diagnosis and evolutive dynamic control of SCD. Stents are useful pseudoaneurysm resolution.]]>
