Angiographic documentation of de novo aneurysm--case report

Neurol Med Chir (Tokyo). 1998 Nov;38(11):730-2. doi: 10.2176/nmc.38.730.

Abstract

A 49-year-old female presented with a case of de novo aneurysm which was documented angiographically 10 years after the initial aneurysm rupture. The de novo aneurysm arose as a blister-like aneurysm from a previously normal location 7 years after the first ictus. The de novo aneurysm progressed to a saccular aneurysm and ruptured after another 3 years. We recommend late angiography in high-risk patients to prevent repeat ictus.
