True Recurrent artery of Heubner (RAH) aneurysms are extremely rare and only three cases have been reported in the literature. We report a case of RAH aneurysm in a patient with World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies grade one subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), detected only on delayed cerebral angiography. We propose that an aneurysm in this location should be considered in the differential diagnosis of angiogram-negative SAH, and all vascular imaging studies be carefully scrutinized for RAH aneurysm

Key-words:

Aneurysm - Heubner - subarachnoid hemorrhage
