Summary: Aneurysms of the middle meningeal artery are rare, with no documented association with neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2). Middle meningeal artery aneurysm embolization with N-butylcyanoacrylate has not been described, and altogether, few accounts exist regarding the endovascular management of these unusual aneurysms. In this case report of a patient with NF2, an unruptured middle meningeal artery aneurysm was prophylactically embolized in a previously unreported fashion by using N-butylcyanoacrylate acrylic glue.
