Abstract

Neonatal seizures are a frequently encountered neurological condition, with intracranial aneurysms being a rare but notable cause. Cerebellar imaging plays a pivotal role in their diagnosis. Treatment options are microsurgery or embolisation. In this report, we present the case of a 26-day-old neonate who experienced a neonatal seizure, revealing a ruptured aneurysm. The condition was successfully treated surgically, resulting in a favourable outcome.
