A case of vasa corona ruptured pseudoaneurysm: case report and review of literature
摘要
Ruptured aneurysms or pseudoaneurysms associated with the vasa corona, in the absence of cerebral arteriovenous malformation or dural arteriovenous fistula, are extremely rare but should be recognized as a possible cause of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). We report the case of a 51-year-old female who presented with SAH due to a ruptured vasa corona pseudoaneurysm, with no associated anatomical abnormalities involving the vertebral artery or the posterior inferior cerebellar artery. She recovered after direct surgery. In previous cases, anterior spinal artery dilatation due to posterior inferior cerebellar artery anomalies prompted endovascular treatment. A thorough assessment remains crucial, and direct surgery can be effective.
