Abstract

Intracranial aneurysms are uncommon in the pediatric population (∔18 years old), accounting for about 2% cases of all ages. Only less than 2000 pediatric intracranial aneurysm cases have been reported worldwide in the literatures until 2015 (Beez et al. 2016; Bowers et al. 2012; Chandela and Langer 2010; Huang et al. 2005; Regelsberger et al. 2009; Sanai et al. 2010; Sorteberg and Dahlberg 2013). Search on PubMed identified 135 articles published between 2000 and 2015, which included 573 children and 656 aneurysms (Beez et al. 2016). In this review, we excluded intracranial aneurysmal cases accompanied with arteriovenous malformation (AVM) and Moyamoya disease.
