A case of saccular aneurysm associated with a fenestrated proximal basilar artery is presented. The aneurysm projected anteriorly, superiorly, and slightly to the left. Via a right suboccipital approach, the aneurysm was clipped with preservation of all vessels. The only postoperative deficit is a resolving dysphonia.
