Summary
Two cases of rupture of intracranial aneurysms and opacification of the lateral ventricles occurring during carotid angiography are reported and X-rays of the haemorrhage from the aneurysms are presented.
Though the possibility of this complications remains a real one, the early use of this valuable procedure should not be precluded.
