A Case of a giant aneurysm of the internal carotid artery in an eleven years child is presented. The size of the aneurysm was 5 cm in its greatest diameter. The lesion presented with features of suprasellar mass, multiple lower cranial nerve paresis, ataxia, long tract signs and spontaneous, unprovoked bursts of laughter. Such a large size of aneurysm with features of mass effect involving the supratentorial as well as the infratentorial compartment is rarely encountered. Unprovoked bursts of laughter was a unique symptom in this child.
