Brachial artery aneurysms and arteriovenous malformations (AVM) are limb-threatening vascular anomalies. This patient presented with a bilobed brachial artery aneurysm in the antecubital fossa proximally to an AVM arising from the dorsal interosseous and ulnar arteries that had been treated with endovascular embolization, leaving the hand solely supplied by the radial artery. The aneurysm continued to increase in size and imaging revealed concomitant thrombus. A femoral vein interposition graft was used to repair the aneurysm, and postoperatively, the patient retained full left arm function.

Introduction Pericallosal artery (PA) aneurysms represent 2 to 9% of all intracranial aneurysms, and their management remains difficult. Objective The aim of the present study is to describe the case of an adult woman with subarachnoid hemorrhage and bilateral PA aneurysm in mirror position. Case Report A 46-year-old woman was referred to our institution 20 days after a sudden severe headache. She informed that she was treating her arterial hypertension irregularly, and consumed ∼ 20 cigarettes/day. The patient was neurologically intact at admission. A non-contrast computed tomography (CT) on the first day of the onset of the symptoms revealed hydrocephaly and subarachnoid hemorrhage (Fisher III). An angio-CT/digital subtraction arteriography showed bilateral PA aneurysms in mirror position. The patient was successfully treated with surgery via the right interhemispheric approach (because the surgeon is right-handed); the surgeon performed the proximal control with temporary clipping, and introduced an external ventricular drain at the end of the surgery. The patient was discharged on the fourth postoperative day without any additional neurological deficits or ventricular shunts. Conclusion Ruptured PA aneurysm is a surgically challenging aneurysm due to the many anatomical nuances and risk of rebleeding. However, the operative management of ruptured bilateral PA aneurysms is feasible and effective.

Electrocardiogram (ECG) changes suggestive of cardiac ischemia are frequently demonstrated in patients with ischemic stroke and subarachnoid hemorrhage. However, little is known of such changes particularly acute ST segment myocardial infarction (STEMI) in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), especially after neurosurgery. We present a patient with intraparenchymal hemorrhage due to cerebral arteriovenous malformation (AVM) who exhibited acute STEMI after neurosurgery. Serial cardiac biomarkers and echocardiograms were performed which did not reveal any evidence of acute myocardial infarction. The patient was managed conservatively from cardiac stand point with no employment of anticoagulants, antiplatelet therapy, fibrinolytic agents, or angioplasty and recovered well with minimal neurological deficit. This case highlights that diffuse cardiac ischemic signs on the ECG can occur in the setting of an ICH after neurosurgery, potentially posing a difficult diagnostic and management conundrum.

AbstractGiant pericallosal artery aneurysms are extremely rare. Aneurismatic lesions involving this artery are usually small, tend to early bleeding and might be associated with other lesions. Differential diagnosis of giant aneurysms are not easy and includes tumoral, infectious and vascular mass effect lesions. We report a case of a giant and partially thrombosed left pericallosal artery aneurysm. A 58-year-old man, presented with progressive headaches, seizures and speech alterations initially misdiagnosed as a falx cerebri meningioma. As clinical status continue to worsen, magnetic resonance imaging and digital cerebral angiography were performed and a vascular etiology was considered. The patient was then referred to our hospital for surgical treatment. The peculiarity of this case concerns the difficulty of surgical treatment once the surgeon was not able to obtain control of the afferent artery and the aneurysm neck could not be visualized. Also, the aneurysm adhered to the medial surfaces of the frontal lobes and covered the anterior cerebral arteries. Treatment by means of microsurgical thrombectomy, clipping and resection of the lesion was successfully performed. Microsurgical treatment may provide good results when carefully planned with the help of imaging studies of the lesion. It is essential to keep in mind that flexible approach is of great importance when dealing with giant aneurysmatic lesions of pericallosal artery due to its variety of intraoperative presentation.
