A Problem in Management

Harold P. Adams, Jr, MD

Arch Neurol. 1977;34(8):515-516.

Abstract
• A patient treated by surgical correction of carotid stenosis later died of subarachnoid hemorrhage from rupture of a previously asymptomatic ipsilateral cerebral aneurysm. When the two conditions coexist, the increase in blood flow resulting from repair of the stenosis may promote rupture of the higher aneurysm.
