Fusiform middle cerebral artery aneurysm
Journal Title: Nepal Journal of Neuroscience - Year 2004, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Rupture of aneurysm of the cerebral artery is the commonest cause of spontaneous intracranial subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). However, rupture of the fusiform aneurysm is relatively rare. We came across a patient with a fusiform aneurysm of the right middle cerebral artery who presented with spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage. The patient underwent routine imaging studies followed by successful wrapping of the aneurysm. We describe this unique case in detail and review the literature
