    Dissecting aneurysms of the vertebral artery at its intracranial segment are uncommon lesions, mainly when associated to subarachnoid hemorrhage, being also rare fenestrations of the vertebral artery. They present high morbidity and mortality, with high rebleeding rate and difficulty of surgical approach. We present a 19 years old man who was victim of physical aggression in the occipto-cervical region, presenting subarachnoid hemorrhage and a dissecting aneurysm of the right vertebral artery, which had a fenestration, being submitted to endovascular treatment. We accomplished a literature review about this subject, proposing endovascular treatment as a therapeutic option for these cases.

    We report our experience with 11 cases of foramen magnum meningiomas, eight originating inside the posterior fossa and three in the caudal region. The mean age of the patients was 50.8 years and the main complaint was cervical headache for at least 18.6 months and at the neurological examination, tetraparesis and deficit of the lower cranial nerves were very often observed. All patients were submitted to surgical treatment, always with exposition of the vertebral artery at the entry zone in the duramater of the posterior fossa, with partial removal of the occipital condyle in only three cases. Total resection was obtained in seven patients and partial removal in the other four due to adherences to vessels and nerves. The prognostic was related to the neurological condition before surgery.
