title: Coil embolization of "kissing aneurysms" associated with distal basilar artery fenestration.
abstract: The authors present an extremely rare case of kissing aneurysms associated with fenestration of the distal basilar artery. The two aneurysms were successfully treated with endovascular coil embolization. We provide two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) angiographic features of the kissing aneurysms, and procedural details of coil embolization. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of kissing aneurysms at the fenestrated distal basilar artery.
