A Pseudoaneurysm Associated with a Ruptured Cerebral Aneurysm: Hypothesis on the Formation of the PA and Feasibility of Endovascular Treatment

An intracranial pseudoaneurysm (PA) is a very rare disease and is known to occur in less than 1% of intracranial aneurysms. The pathophysiology and the modality of the proper treatment of PA have not yet been clearly established. We report a case of PA associated with ruptured cerebral aneurysms whi...

Sumario:An intracranial pseudoaneurysm (PA) is a very rare disease and is known to occur in less than 1% of intracranial aneurysms. The pathophysiology and the modality of the proper treatment of PA have not yet been clearly established. We report a case of PA associated with ruptured cerebral aneurysms which was successfully treated by coil embolization, and also discuss the possible hypothesis on the formation of the PA and feasibility of endovascular treatments.
