Five Aneurysms Arising from the Ipsilateral Internal Carotid Artery : Case Report / 대한뇌혈관외과학회지

ABSTRACT

Although the incidence of intracranial multiple aneurysms are not low, the occurrence of multiple aneurysms more than three developing on the ipsilateral carotid artery is quite rare. We present a patient with five aneurysms on the left internal carotid artery. Four aneurysms arising from the left internal carotid artery underwent microsurgical clipping and wrapping, and remnant superior hypophyseal artery aneurysm was treated by using coil embolization. Incidence and risk factors for management of multiple aneurysms were investigated with the literature review.
