Abstract

The number of associated aneurysms in this series is high as most patients had both vertebral and carotid trees studied. The incidence of multiple aneurysms (26.2%) therefore probably approximates the actual figure. The female sex predominated (73%). Hypertension was not more frequent (20%) and the mean age of these patients was three years higher than with single aneurysms.
