Multiple aneurysms at the site of a basilar artery fenestration (BAF) are extremely rare. We report a case of BAF in association with two aneurysms successfully treated with Guglielmi Detachable Coils (GDCs). A 42-year-old male presented with subarachnoid hemorrhage and consciousness change. Angiograms of the vertebrobasilar artery demonstrated fenestration of the proximal basilar artery associated with two aneurysms. Embolization of aneurysms was done by using GDCs. Aneurysms were almost completely obliterated with preservation of the flow and lumen of the vertebrobasilar system. The patient remains asymptomatic at clinical follow-up of 18 months.
