Summary
A case of rupture, during angiography, of a right middle cerebral artery aneurysm with profuse hemorrhage into the subarachnoidal space is presented. Bleeding must have started between the two injections for the frontal and for the lateral carotidograms. The aneurysm that ruptured two days after a closed cerebral trauma was probably traumatic in origin.
Zusammenfassung
Ein Patient mit Aneurysma-Ruptur der rechten A. cerebri media und profusem Blutaustritt in den Subarachnoidalraum während Angiographie wird beschrieben. Die Blutung begann offenbar zwischen den beiden Carotis-Injektionen für die frontale und laterale Angiographie. Da die Aneurysma-Ruptur 2 Tage nach einem geschlossenen Schädeltrauma entstand, wird eine traumatische Ursache angenommen.
