In this case report, a distal anterior cerebral artery aneurysm was presented. While most distal anterior aneurysms occur at the bifurcation of the pericallosal and callosomarginal arteries, this particular aneurysm occurred at the frontopolar artery, a case rarely reported in published literature. The aneurysm had a recurrent subarachnoid haemorrhage due to the rupture of a saccular aneurysm and was treated through endovascular coiling.
