Description Giant bilateral cavernous carotid aneurysms (CCAs) are exceptionally rare (1). They have a low risk of rupture but are known to grow with time and can become symptomatic (2). Symptoms are often related to the aneurysm's location within the cavernous sinus and can include cranial neuropathies leading to ophthalmoplegia, CCAassociated cerebral infarct, epistaxis, spontaneous fistula formation and even rarely subarachnoid hemorrhage (1, 3, 4, 5).
