Most of the aneurysms occur at the bifurcation  of major vessels as we all know.  MCA aneurysms  generally  occur at bifurcation  of  MCA (MIDDLE CEREBRAL ARTERY) . However  this aneurysm was at further branching  of frontal division of MCA at M2-M3 junction and supplying frontal lobe  . It posed a different  challenges  as aneurysm  was embedded in frontal lobe paren chyma .

Also vessels beyond bifurcation are very delicate and frontal and temporal trunks generally  trifurcate or more hence aneurysm  is surrounded by multiple  delicate 1-2mm vessels . Clipping  some times carries risk of kinking these vessels . In this case aneurysm  was bilobed and was clipped using two clips to avoid kinking of trifurcation. Patient  had uneventful  recovery.
