Dissecting Aneurysm Associated with a Double Origin of the Posterior Inferior Cerebellar Artery Causing Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
Two cases of the posterior fossa dissecting aneurysm associated with a double origin of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery (DOPICA) causing subarachnoid hemorrhage are presented. After observing a relationship between the aneurysm and DOPICA on a three dimensional rotational angiogram (3DRA), the dissecting aneurysms were successfully obliterated by surgical trapping and endovascular inte...
متن کاملAneurysm of the Posterior Meningeal Artery Embedded Within a Dorsal Exophytic Medullary Hemangioblastoma: Surgical Management and Review of Literature
Hemangioblastomas are World Health Organization (WHO) Grade I neoplasms of the hindbrain and spinal cord, whose management can be complicated by preoperative hemorrhage. We report on a case of a young female in extremis with posterior fossa hemorrhage following rupture of a fusiform posterior meningeal artery aneurysm embedded within a medullary hemangioblastoma. We discuss management options, ...
متن کاملPersistent primitive hypoglossal artery associated with lower basilar artery aneurysm: diagnosis and clinical implications.
An elderly male was evaluated for subarachnoid hemorrhage and found to have a persistent primitive hypoglossal artery with its associated abnormal posterior fossa circulation and a lower basilar artery aneurysm. Angiography findings are described and are corroborated with computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Its surgical and clinical relevance are discussed.
متن کاملDissecting aneurysms of the basilar artery in 2 patients.
An uncommon consequence of intracranial vascular disease is the intramural dissection of blood or "dissecting aneurysm". A 69-year-old man with chronic subarachnoid hemorrhage from a posterior fossa mass lesion and a 30-year-old man with migraine and a brain stem stroke illustrate the diverse etiologic, clinical, radiographic, and pathologic characteristics of this unusual lesion.
متن کاملDissecting aneurysm of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery.
Dissecting aneurysms of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery are an uncommon cause of stroke in the vertebrobasilar system, but they may also present with subarachnoid bleeding into the posterior fossa in 70% of the cases. Neither magnetic resonance imaging nor vertebral angiography show specific signs. Treatment should be neurosurgical to prevent rebleeding, although few cases have been re...
