Subarachnoid hemorrhage due to late recurrence of a previously unruptured aneurysm after complete endovascular occlusion.
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a case of subarachnoid hemorrhage attributed to rupture of an aneurysm 18 months after endovascular occlusion. The aneurysm was diagnosed after the patient had a seizure; however, there was no evidence of subarachnoid hemorrhage. Angiography at 6 months revealed a totally occluded aneurysm. This case illustrates that the long-term results of endovascular occlusion remain uncertain.

[Endovascular treatment of unruptured intracranial aneurysms].
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Intracranial aneurysms are common, with an overall frequency ranging from 0.8% to 10%. Because prognosis after subarachnoid hemorrhage is still very poor, treatment of unruptured aneurysms, either neurosurgically or endovascularly, has been advocated. However, risk of rupture and subsequent subarachnoid hemorrhage needs to be considered against the risks of elective treat...
متن کاملEndovascular treatment with bare platinum coils for middle cerebral artery aneurysms.
Middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysms often have unfavorable anatomical characteristics preventing successful endovascular occlusion. We reviewed the outcomes of our series of endosaccular embolization of MCA aneurysms using bare platinum coils, angiographic images, and medical records. Immediate and follow-up angiographic results were categorized as complete occlusion, residual neck, and resi...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE To report morbidity, mortality, and angiographic results of elective coiling of unruptured intracranial aneurysms. METHODS In a 10-year period, 176 unruptured aneurysms in 149 patients were electively treated with detachable coils. Seventy-nine aneurysms were additional to another ruptured aneurysm but were coiled more than 3 months after subarachnoid hemorrhage, 59 ane...
متن کاملEndovascular Treatment of Aneurysms Arising from the Proximal Segment of the Anterior Cerebral Artery
OBJECTIVE Aneurysms arising from the proximal segment of the anterior cerebral artery (A1) are rare and challenging to treat. The aim of this study was to report our experience with endovascular treatment of A1 Aneurysms. METHODS From August 2007 through May 2012, eleven A1 aneurysms in eleven patients were treated endovascularly. Six aneurysms were unruptured and 5 were ruptured. One patient...
متن کاملFatal recurrent subarachnoid hemorrhage after complete endovascular aneurysm occlusion.
Endovascular treatment of aneurysms has become an alternative to the neurosurgical approach. Here, we describe a patient presenting with a subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) due to a basilar tip aneurysm, which was completely occluded with coils. Fourteen days later the patient died due to massive recurrent SAH. Histologic evaluation showed aneurysm rerupture with coil dislocation in the subarachnoi...
