Cerebral Aneurysm Associated

چکیده
= A b s t rac t =Two Cases of ruptured cerebral aneurysms associated with polycystic kidney diseases (PKD) are presented. Case 1 is a 60-year-old woman diagnosed as PKD after rupture of an anterior communicating artery aneurysm. Eleven days after successful aneurysmal clipping, she died of sudden massive intra-abdominal bleeding from kidney rupture. Case 2 is a 60-year-old man diagnosed as aneurysmal rupture 15 years after diagnosis of PKD. After anterior and posterior communicating artery aneurysms were clipped he recovered well. Since cerebral aneurysms is far more prevalent in patients with PKD than in the general population and aneurysm rupture is a leading cause of death, screening of the aneurysm by digital subtraction angiography or magnetic resonance angiography and prophylactic surgery of the aneurysm should be done.

A patient-specific study of blood flow in a cerebral aneurysm using medical images
Background: Cerebral aneurysm disease causes intracranial hemorrhage by rupturing, which can eventually, lead to organ failure or death. For this reason, it is important to anticipate the reasons for rupturing of a cerebral aneurysm from biomechanical point of view. Investigating this disease may even help the physicians to find treatments and predict the patient’s situation. This research was ...

Abstract Some changes are present in ECG of about %90 of patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) who are admitted due to cerebral aneurysm . The most common site of these lesions amoung the cerebral arteries is anterior cerebral arteries which supplies autonomic cardiovascular c. centers. It seems that the location of aneurysm is effective on variability of ECG manifestation and there is ...

Cerebrovascular disease is one of the leading causes of death in the world, and about one-fourth of cerebrovascular deaths are due to ruptured cerebral aneurysms (CA). Hence it is important to find a way to reduce aneurysm formation and its subsequent morbidity and mortality. Proteolytic activity capable of lysing gelatin has been shown to be increased in aneurysm tissue and expressio...
