| ABSTRACT |
|
We have experienced a rare case of multiple intracranial aneurysms associated with polycystic kidney and polycystic liver, which were incidental findings after minor leakage. A 57-year-old female was admitted with the chief complaint of severe headache under the impression of subarachnoid hemorrhage due to rupture of the intracranial aneurysm(which were appeared as the right middle cerebral artery and A-com aneurysm). The brain CT scan showed subarachnoid hemorrhage in the right sylvian fissure and the right temporal lobe. On physical examination, 2FB hard irregular palpable mass was noted on the right costal margin. On neurological examination, her neck was mildly stiff and other signs were within normal limit. We checked abdominal sonography, abdominal CT scan and carotid angiography preoperatively, and reviewed the literature about polycystic disease associated with intracranial aneurysm and discussed about it. |
