Description
Summary:When aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage due to multiple aneurysms is suspected, identifying the rupture site is essential to determine the exact surgical site, but it may not be easy. Even if embolization is adequately performed, complications may remain. Typical complications include rebleeding and hydrocephalus in the early phase and delayed cerebral ischemia in the delayed phase. Herein, we describe a case of rupture of an intracranial aneurysm after performing embolization for a different ruptured intracranial aneurysm in a patient with multiple intracranial aneurysms. Patients with multiple intracranial aneurysms need to be considered for closer observation than those with a single ruptured intracranial aneurysm, even if the patient's prognosis is good.
