✓ The change in size of a ruptured anterior cerebral artery aneurysm was recorded in a series of angiograms. The aneurysm did not appear on the initial angiogram, but was seen on the second study. Incomplete filling was seen on the third angiogram, and the aneurysm appeared to have thrombosed on the fourth angiogram. On the fifth angiogram, done 5 weeks after the first, the aneurysm filled completely. It was subsequently clipped.

✓ The authors describe a case of giant anterior cerebral artery aneurysm associated with an anatomically related arteriovenous malformation (AVM). The aneurysm was almost completely thrombosed and was resected along with the AVM.

AbstractWe experienced two cases in which aneurysm clips sprang from the applier. In case 1, a subdural haematoma from a ruptured anterior cerebral artery aneurysm was detected. When the clip was opened for final positioning, it suddenly sprang from the applier and ruptured the aneurysm. In case 2, the clip suddenly sprang from the applier as the surgeon opened the applier to clip an unruptured anterior cerebral aneurysm. These accidental phenomena are rare but dangerous. We present these cases to help prevent similar occurrences in the future. Video recordings of actual procedures can point to potential mechanisms and help reduce the incidence of this complication.

It is not common for an isolated visual symptom to be the first indication of an aneurysm compressing the optic nerve. The compression can lead to blindness, and a recovery from the blindness is rare. We report a female with a left painless optic neuropathy caused by an unruptured anterior cerebral artery aneurysm. The patient had a temporal hemianopic visual field defect, which progressed to blindness in the left eye, while the right visual function was not affected. A coil embolization of the aneurysm completely restored her visual acuity to 20/20. These findings suggest that aneurysmal lesions should be ruled out in case of unilateral optic neuropathy with hemianopic visual field defects and progressive visual loss.
