These distal anterior cerebral artery (DACA) aneurysms comprise 1.5 %–9 % of all intracranial aneurysms and are usually saccular. Fusiform aneurysms in this location are exceedingly uncommon and present unique management challenges due to their morphology and location. This report describes the management of a ruptured fusiform CMA aneurysm and discusses key technical aspects of microsurgical planning and reconstruction.\u003Cbr>Case description: A 60-year-old smoker presented with a one-week history of severe headache, nausea, and vomiting. Imaging revealed a ruptured fusiform aneurysm of the distal callosomarginal artery. Given the aneurysm’s location and morphology, open surgical treatment was chosen. The aneurysm was excised, and after careful mobilization, the affected vessel was reconstructed with a tension-free end-to-end anastomosis. Histological and microbiological analysis of the aneurysm and abnormal arachnoid showed no signs of mycotic origin. A cardiological evaluation ruled out infective endocarditis. Postoperative recovery was uneventful, and followup angiography confirmed complete aneurysm resection with vessel patency. The patient was started on lifelong antiplatelet therapy and remained asymptomatic with full functional recovery at the one and two year follow-up. Conclusion: While endovascular options are expanding, distal aneurysms in small-caliber vessels remain inaccessible in most cases. Direct microsurgical vessel reconstruction offers a durable and definitive treatment option in carefully selected cases. Microsurgical training and expertise in vascular reconstruction are essential for managing complex vascular lesions that fall beyond the reach of endovascular therapy. |\n\n1. Introduction  \nThe callosomarginal artery (CMA) is the largest branch of the pericallosal artery, running parallel to it within the cingulate gyrus and supplying cortical regions of the frontal and parietal lobes, including the supplementary motor area. Aneurysms of the CMA are rare and most often arise at its bifurcation from the pericallosal artery. They form part of the broader group of distal anterior cerebral artery (DACA) aneurysms, which account for approximately 1.5 %–9 % of all intracranial aneurysms (Zhai et al., 2021). Because of their rarity, CMA aneurysms are less frequently addressed in the literature compared with aneurysms  \nat other locations. This report describes a ruptured fusiform CMA aneurysm treated by surgical excision and direct end-to-end vessel reconstruction, with complete recovery. Current literature, key technical considerations and available strategies for dissection and microvascular reconstruction are also discussed.  \n2.
