The author presents a patient with idiopathic intracranial hypertension who was diagnosed with cerebral venous sinus stenosis (CVSS). Venography accompanied by pressure measurement was used to guide the stent placement for CVSS. CASE DESCRIPTION A 27-year-old woman was referred to our hospital with a chief complaint of headache and neckache lasting for 7 weeks, with an 8-day history of binocular diplopia and blurred vision. Magnetic resonance venography and digital subtraction angiography showed a filling defect in the right transverse sinus. A pressure wire was used before endovascular treatment and showed that the pressure gradient was 10 mm Hg, which meets the surgical indication. After a stent was placed, no pressure gradient was recorded by the pressure wire. CONCLUSIONS This is the first report about using a pressure wire for CVSS. The finding suggests that use of a pressure wire can be a new approach in the diagnosis and treatment of CVSS. This case Video 1 demonstrates a microsurgical technique for trapping and excision of 2 ruptured mycotic aneurysms. The patient was a 64-year-old man with severe mitral regurgitation and valvular vegetations suggestive of endocarditis. On examination, the patient presented with speech difficulty. Preoperative imaging showed a large left temporoparietal intracerebral hemorrhage and associated sulcal subarachnoid hemorrhage from 2 distal aneurysms of the left middle cerebral artery. In the presence of ruptured aneurysms in a patient who requires anticoagulation for valve replacement, endovascular options are limited. For aneurysms located in an eloquent area in the left hemisphere, microsurgical treatment with small corridors can facilitate excision and minimize damage to the surrounding tissue. As such, the
