Summary
The authors report the radiological features of a patient, believed to be unique in the literature, of multiple aneurysms of the lateral-most lenticulostriate artery in a normotensive, nondiabetic, young, female patient who presented with left basal ganglionic hematoma and showed spontaneous obliteration of these aneurysms, on follow-up angiography.
