Distal anterior cerebral artery mirror aneurysms and middle cerebral artery aneurysms.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A 52-year-old woman presented with bilateral distal anterior cerebral artery (ACA) mirror aneurysms, in addition to two right middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysms. The left distal ACA and right MCA aneurysms were clipped through right interhemispheric and right pterional craniotomies. The right distal ACA aneurysm was thrombosed. Distal ACA aneurysms tend to be multiple, but mirror aneurysms are rare, especially in the absence of congenital vascular anomaly. Single stage unilateral craniotomy is recommended for surgical treatment.

Background: This investigation was conducted in order to study angiographic findings in patients with cerebral aneurysm. Materials and Methods: The study conducted on 136 cases of ruptured cerebral aneurysms between 1995-2000 confirmed by means of 4-vessel cerebral angiography to get an insight to racial, geographic and environmental factors predisposing to the occurrence of subarachnoid hemorr...
متن کاملDistal anterior cerebral artery aneurysms.
BACKGROUND Distal anterior cerebral artery (DACA) aneurysms, also known as pericallosal artery aneurysms, represent about 6% of all intracranial aneurysms. They are located on the A2-A5 segments of the anterior cerebral artery and on its distal branches. METHODS This paper summarizes present knowledge on radiological features, treatment options, treatment results, and long-term follow-up of D...
متن کاملManagement of Ruptured and Rapidly Progressive Mycotic Cerebral Aneurysms in the Setting of Unilateral Carotid Occlusion and Endocarditis with Valve Failure
Mycotic cerebral aneurysms can present unique neurosurgical challenges. We report a patient with left carotid occlusions, a ruptured left middle cerebral artery mycotic aneurysm, and a rapidly appearing unruptured left anterior cerebral artery/anterior communicating artery (ACA/ACom) mycotic aneurysm in the setting of mitral valve endocarditis with a perivalvular leak and evolving congestive he...
متن کاملEndovascular treatment of distal anterior cerebral artery aneurysms: single-center experience and a systematic review.
In this study, a single center's experience of 20 patients and a systematic review and a meta-analysis of 16 studies, including 279 patients/aneurysms, assessed the safety and efficacy of endovascular treatment of distal anterior cerebral artery aneurysms. The authors conclude that endovascular treatment of distal anterior cerebral artery aneurysms is associated with high angiographic occlusion...
متن کاملOne-stage operation for rare multiple mirror intracranial aneurysms: a case report and literature review.
Although intracranial multiple aneurysms are not uncommon, multiple mirror aneurysms are relatively rare. A few isolated cases have been described. However, to the best of our knowledge, 3 pairs of pure symmetrical mirror aneurysms in one patient have not been reported yet. We present a case of multiple mirror aneurysms involving the bilateral middle cerebral artery (MCA) bifurcations and poste...
