Case report: Mirror paraclinoid aneurysm associated with mirror clinoidal meningioma.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Introduction: Clinoidal meningiomas and paraclinoid aneurysms are individually uncommon, with the coexistence of mirror paraclinoid aneurysms and clinoidal meningiomas presenting an even rarer scenario. While the association between meningiomas and aneurysms is documented, the simultaneous presence of mirror lesions for both pathologies is not reported in the literature. Clinical presentation: We report a 62-year-old female with a three-month history of moderate bifrontal headaches. Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA) revealed mirror paraclinoid aneurysms, prompting surgical intervention. During the procedure, mirror clinoidal meningiomas were incidentally discovered. The left aneurysm was addressed first due to higher rupture risk, followed by the right aneurysm 3 months later. Both meningiomas were confirmed as Transitional Meningiomas (Grade 1; OMS, 2021). The aneurysms were successfully clipped, and the patient had an excellent postoperative outcome. Conclusion: This case represents a unique occurrence of mirror ophthalmic segment internal carotid artery aneurysms associated with mirror clinoidal meningiomas, a combination not previously reported. Despite the limitations of MRA in detecting small meningiomas, it remains a valuable non-invasive screening tool for neurovascular diseases. The case underscores the need for further research to elucidate the association between cerebral aneurysms and meningiomas.
