Headache attributed to unruptured saccular aneurysm, mimicking hemicrania continua

Unruptured cerebral arterial aneurysms most often remain asymptomatic, but they may cause headache or other symptoms or signs. We describe herewith a case of headache attributed to an unruptured nternal carotid artery aneurysm, clearly mimicking the phenotype of hemicrania continua. Potential pathop...
