Abstract

AbstractIntracranial aneurysms in pediatric population are rare and differ in several features with their adult counterpart. Clipping and endovascular therapy have both demonstrated favorable clinical outcomes with reconstructive and deconstructive techniques. We present the case of a 5-month-old infant who was admitted to the emergency with interhemispheric and sylvian subarachnoid hemorrhage. CT angiography and three-dimensional digital subtraction angiography revealed a ruptured left pericallosal aneurysm with morphological features of a dissecting aneurysm. Coiling and N-butyl-cyanoacrylate administration were employed to occlude the aneurysm without complications. Endovascular therapy is an effective and safe option in cases of ruptured intracranial aneurysms in pediatric patients with favorable clinical and radiological outcomes.
