title: Aneurysm on a persistent hypoglossal artery.
abstract: The authors report a patient with saccular aneurysm on a left persistent hypoglossal artery who suffered subarachnoid haemorrhage from an aneurysm of the right distal anterior cerebral artery. A review of the literature emphasizes the rarity of the occurrence of an aneurysm on a persistent primitive hypoglossal artery itself.
