Infectious intracranial aneurysm: Endovascular treatment with Onyx case report and review of the literature
Zhao, Pei Chao; Li, Jin; He, Min & You, Chao
Abstract
Intracranial infectious (mycotic) aneurysms are very rare, but continue to be challenging and technically demanding, which need careful diagnosis and therapy. We present an 18-year-old man with an intracranial infectious aneurysm located on the left posterior cerebral artery who was successfully treated with endovascular embolization by a liquid embolic agent (Onyx) and who recovered well.
Keywords
