Abstract The association of two aneurysms on the distal posteroinferior cerebellar artery with an arteriovenous malformation fed by the same artery is reported. A one-stage operation was performed. The other cases in the literature are analyzed with particular regard to the origin of the subarachnoid hemorrhage and the location of the aneurysms.

Disease Case

Abstract A 25-year-old man was hospitalized after suffering a subarachnoid hemorrhage. Arteriograms disclosed two arteriovenous malformations, one of which was asymptomatic. Rendu-Osler-Weber disease was suspected because of the concomitant existence of cutaneous telangiectases, Review of the literature shows that in 12 previously published cases involving multiple arteriovenous malformations, this diagnosis was established five times. The indications for surgical treatment are discussed.

Subarcuate Artery

Background Peripheral anterior inferior cerebellar artery (AICA) aneurysms are rare and commonly associated with vascular malformations, such as cerebellar arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). We present a case wherein multiple AICA feeding aneurysms on the subarcuate artery as a feeding artery of a Borden type I transverse-sigmoid dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) manifested as subarachnoid hemorrhage. Case description A 67-year-old woman presented with acute severe headache. Brain computed tomography (CT) demonstrated subarachnoid hemorrhage mainly in the posterior fossa. A transverse-sigmoid dAVF was detected on magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) and three-dimensional-CT angiography (3D-CTA), with no cortical venous reflex. The patient underwent conventional angiography, which showed multiple aneurysms on a small branch of the AICA, feeding a transverse-sigmoid dAVF (Borden type I). The AICA aneurysms seemed flow dependent and ruptured owing to high-flow arteriovenous shunts through the dAVF. Based on the source images of the MRA, the small artery arising from the AICA was considered the subarcuate artery, and it was confirmed on 3D-CTA after the artery was successfully embolized with Onyx without any complications. Multiple aneurysms on the subarcuate artery are extremely rare, and the artery has not been identified as a feeding artery of the transverse-sigmoid dAVF. Conclusion A rare case of multiple ruptured aneurysms on the subarcuate artery was reported in a patient with a Borden type I dAVF at the transverse-sigmoid sinuses manifesting as subarachnoid hemorrhage. Onyx embolization of the parent artery occlusion was feasible and useful in treating this type of feeding artery aneurysm of the AICA with a dAVF.

In Pregnancy

Abstract Subarachnoid hemorrhage represents a rare event in pregnancy with a high mortality rate. We present the case of a 39-year-old pregnant woman who developed right vertebral artery dissection with subsequent massive subarachnoid hemorrhage with fatal outcome. The macroscopic and microscopic autopsy findings are described. A review of the literature with a discussion of the varied predisposing factors for vertebral artery dissection and subarachnoid hemorrhage and the rarity of these events in pregnancy is provided.
