Treatment of giant aneurysms is challenging. While parent vessel reconstruction is the primary therapeutical target, the parent artery occlusion (PAO) is considered the next treatment option. We report a case of a 56-year-old woman with a right-sided non-ruptured giant aneurysm of the cavernous internal carotid artery. After failed aneurysm treatment by vessel remodeling through a flow diverter stent, we decided upon aneurysm coiling and PAO. Prior to the procedure, a successful balloon occlusion test (BOT) was performed, and in the second stage, just before occluding the parent artery, the BOT with induced hypotension was repeated. We achieved a good angiographic result and successful outcome without neurological deficit. In the case of failed treatment of giant aneurysm by vessel reconstruction, PAO is a therapeutical option. Prior to the vessel occlusion, a BOT with induced arterial hypotension challenge should be performed.
