✓ A case is presented in which an infant had angiographic evidence of two aneurysms of the middle cerebral artery, arteriovenous malformations, aneurysmal dilatation of the left transverse sinus, and kinking of both internal carotid arteries. The literature on intracranial aneurysms in infants and children is reviewed; the clinical and pathological features differ greatly from those in adults.

✓ Embolism from an aneurysm is one of the mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of ischemic symptoms associated with intracranial aneurysms. Four cases are reported in which aneurysms of the internal carotid arteries and middle cerebral arteries were the source of emboli resulting in cerebral infarction. In the treatment of these aneurysms, it is best to clip the neck of the aneurysm with great care to avoid embolism due to extrusion of clot into the distal artery.

Angiographic Findings

✓ A primate model was used to determine whether oxyhemoglobin (OxyHb), methemoglobin (MetHb), or bilirubin is likely to be responsible for cerebral vasospasm following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Forty cynomolgus monkeys were randomly assigned to one of five groups. On Day 0, each animal underwent angiography followed by right craniectomy and placement of an Ommaya reservoir with its catheter adjacent to the right middle cerebral artery (MCA). The animals received intrathecal injections twice a day for 6 days of one of the following solutions: mock cerebrospinal fluid (CSF); OxyHb; MetHb; bilirubin; or supernatant fluid from an incubated mixture of autologous blood and mock CSF. On Day 7, angiography was repeated and the animals were killed. Comparison of angiograms obtained on Day 0 and Day 7 of the experiment showed significant vasospasm of the right MCA and the right anterior cerebral and internal carotid arteries in the animal groups that had received OxyHb or supernatant fluid. There was a smaller reduction in diameter of the same vessels in the bilirubin group (not statistically significant), while no effects were observed in the groups receiving MetHb or mock CSF. Electron microscopy of the right MCA's gave results consistent with the angiographic findings. One monkey in the OxyHb group developed a delayed-onset right MCA infarction. These data suggest that OxyHb is the cause of cerebral vasospasm following SAH.

✓ The authors describe their experiences with five patients with delayed transient ischemic symptoms homolateral to internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusions. In each instance, initial arteriograms were interpreted as showing irreversible occlusions of these arteries in the neck and microvascular bypass procedures were contemplated. However, after repeat arteriographic evaluations with a modified injection technique, certain angiographic features were identified that suggested the mechanism of the symptoms in these patients and that their ICA's could be reconstituted in the neck. This was successfully accomplished in each patient with complete relief of ischemic symptoms. The angiographic technique employed and the arterial flow patterns identified in these patients are discussed. The details of the operative technique are described. It is concluded that routine arteriographic techniques may be inadequate to identify the reversible carotid occlusion. This may account for some of the confusion which surrounds the surgery of these vessels as well as the failure of extracranial-intracranial bypass to relieve recurrent ischemic symptoms in these individuals.

✓ The authors present two rare cases of severe cerebral vasospasm following the rupture of arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). Computerized tomography revealed intracerebral hemorrhage in the thalamus in one case and in the putamen in the other, both accompanied by cast formation of intraventricular clots without radiological evidence of subarachnoid hemorrhage. Initial angiograms showed arterial narrowing of the bilateral internal carotid arteries in the supraclinoid portion but failed to demonstrate an arteriovenous shunt. Subsequent angiograms clearly demonstrated the existence of an AVM. Radiological features and possible mechanisms are discussed.

✓ A case of bitemporal hemianopsia in a 68-year-old woman is reported. Surgical exploration revealed bilateral compression of the optic nerves by the arteriosclerotic internal carotid arteries. Microsurgical decompression with unroofing of the optic canals resulted in prompt recovery of the visual fields.

Angiographic Findings

✓ The case is presented of a 34-year-old man with subarachnoid hemorrhage from rupture of an anterior communicating artery aneurysm. The magnetic resonance imaging and angiographic findings are reported. Angiography showed the aneurysm plus an unusual anastomosis between the intracavernous portions of both internal carotid arteries. The anastomosis crossed posterior to the base of the dorsum sellae and was associated with absence of the right internal carotid artery and the A1 segment of the right anterior cerebral artery. This is the 11th case of such an unusual intercarotid anastomosis reported in the literature.

✓ A case is reported with occlusion and stenosis of the internal carotid arteries in association with basal telangiectasia. Fifteen years after postoperative irradiation for an optic glioma, radiological signs typical of the moyamoya syndrome were observed. Radiation therapy is discussed as the cause of the vascular damage in this case.

BACKGROUND: Computational fluid dynamics provides a new method for the study of the blood flow characteristics of the formation and development of intracranial aneurysms. OBJECTIVE: To compare blood flow characteristics between the healthy internal carotid artery and normal intracranial aneurysms. METHODS: The internal carotid arteries were simulated to obtain hemodynamic parameters in one patient. RESULTS: The internal carotid artery associated with aneurysm presents low wall shear stress, high oscillatory shear index, and high particle retention time compared with the normal internal carotid artery. CONCLUSIONS: There are differences in blood flow between the normal internal carotid artery and intracranial aneurysm. The vortex of the aneurysm will produce turbulence, indicating that it is unstable, which results in the growth and rupture of the aneurysm.
