Abstract
- We recently experienced a case of serious blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption after coiling of unruptured intracranial aneurysm. The patient presented with an unruptured paraclinoid internal carotid artery (ICA) aneurysm on the right. Typical radiological, clinical characteristics were described. In addition, the role of immediate postembolization CT scan was also discussed.
