Two Bilateral Symmetrical Cases of 4 Multiple Intracranial Aneurysms

• Cho BI

Abstract

Two cases of 4 Multiple Intracranial Aneurysms are presented. The author believes that patients who have had a subarachnoid hemorrhage should have four-vessel arteriography to identify all aneurysms, and that all surgically accessible aneuryms should be treated. Surgery of multiple aneurysms should be performed at the same craniotomy if they are within reach. Hower, if the asymptomatic or incidental aneurysm is in the opposite side or cannot be reached in the initial surgical procedure, it should be treated at a lager craniotomy.
