ABSTRACT
Se presenta el caso de un seudoaneurisma de la arteria cerebral posterior (ACP) de origen postraumático, en un varón de 29 años, debido a herida penetrante por arma blanca. El paciente ingresa en el Servicio de Urgencias en coma (puntuación Glasgow de 8) y hemiplejia izquierda. La tomografía computarizada (TC) realizada al ingreso demostró sangrado en el lóbulo temporal derecho abierto a ventrículos y hemorragia subaracnoidea. La angiografía realizada tres semanas después reveló un aneurisma de la ACP derecha. Tras la intervención, el estudio histológico confirmó la existencia de seudoaneurisma
We present the case of a traumatic posterior cerebral artery pseudoaneurysm of a 29-year-old man due to a penetrating stab wond to the brain. The patient was brought to the emergency room in coma. The neurological examination revealed a Glasgow Coma Scale Score of 8 and left hemiplegy. The initial CT scan showed right temporal lobe haemorraghe with penetration in the lateral ventricle and subarachnoid haemorrhage. The cerebral angiography performed after three weeks, revealed a righ PCA pseudoaneurysm. After surgery, a pseudoaneurysm was demonstrated in the histological study

We present the case of a traumatic posterior cerebral artery pseudoaneurysm of a 29-year-old man due to a penetrating stab wound to the brain. The patient was brought to the emergency room in coma. The neurological examination revealed a Glasgow Coma Scale Score of 8 and left hemiplegy. The initial CT scan showed right temporal lobe haemorrhage with penetration in the lateral ventricle and subarachnoid haemorrhage. The cerebral angiography performed after three weeks, revealed a high PCA pseudoaneurysm. After surgery, a pseudoaneurysm was demonstrated in the histological study.
