Subarachnoid haemorrhage in identical twins.

"Twin" intracranial aneurysms causing subarachnoid haemorrhage in identical twins.

Neurovascular lessons from a pair of identical twins with cerebral aneurysms.

A pair of hypertensive identical twins are reported, one of whom was non-compliant with her antihypertension medication, and after a subarachnoid haemorrhage was found to have multiple cerebral aneurysms. The other asymptomatic compliant twin was noted to have only a single small cerebral aneurysm. As both identical twins are likely to share the same cerebral vascular architecture it is suggest...

Intracranial aneurysms in twins: case report and review of the literature.

Intracranial aneurysm in twins is a rare clinical disease entity. Only 15 cases have been described in the literature. We report on a pair of identical twins with intracranial aneurysms. One presented with subarachnoid haemorrhage; digital subtraction angiography showed a left posterior communicating artery aneurysm, which was treated by coiling. The patient's twin sister was called for screeni...

Multiple cerebral aneurysms in identical twins.

We report the finding of multiple cerebral aneurysms in a pair of identical twins. One twin had subarachnoid hemorrhage and intracerebral hematoma; her sister had subarachnoid hemorrhage and intraventricular bleeding. Angiography in both cases showed multiple cerebral aneurysms. It is appropriate to recommend a cerebral angiographic examination of an asymptomatic twin after the other twin has s...

Two Techniques of Tonsillectomy Performed in Identical Twins: A Case Report

Obstruction has become more prevalent as the major surgical indication and is most prominently observed in younger children.Case Report:  In this report, we aimed to explain the abovementioned surgical techniques in detail and compare the results...
