Carotid rete mirabile associated with subarachnoid hemorrhage.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A 47-year-old man presented with carotid rete mirabile manifesting as subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Computed tomography showed SAH, and angiography disclosed an abnormal vascular network around the petrous and cavernous portions of the internal carotid artery. Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) with technetium-99m methyl cysteinate dimer revealed reduced regional cerebral blood flow (CBF). Twelve months later, he was leading a normal life without neurological problems, hemorrhage, or ischemic manifestations. SPECT with iodine-123 N-isopropyl-p-iodoamphetamine and the acetazolamide challenge test showed the CBF had normalized.

Intracranial rete mirabile (RM) rarely occurs in humans, especially cases that involve both the anterior and posterior circulation (Carotid and vertebral RM, CVRM). The present study reports a rare CVRM case, which showed multiple intracranial hemorrhages during its onset, making it even rarer. The patient was a 48-year-old male; the onset included sudden headache and dizziness, and computed to...

The detailed comparative physiology and species differences between ovine and b...
