Cerebral Cavernous Malformation Associated With Left Middle Cerebral Artery (MCA) Aneurysm and Bilateral Internal Carotid Artery (ICA) Dissections

Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are the second most common type of cerebral vascular lesions. They are often associated with other vascular lesions, typically developmental venous anomalies. CCMs are not known to be associated with cerebral aneurysms and there is a paucity of literature on this occurrence. We report the case of a patient who presented with a focal seizure from a symptomatic CCM with acute hemorrhage and was incidentally found to have a cerebral aneurysm and bilateral internal carotid artery (ICA) dissections secondary to fibromuscular dysplasia. The presence of a cerebral aneurysm has clinical implications as these patients will need closer monitoring.
