serpentine/headache

A rare case of partially thrombosed giant serpentine right middle cerebral artery aneurysm presented. A 26 year old man initially presented with headache and 3 months later developed neurological deficit. Various stages of clot with patent residual lumen seen on neuroimaging, led to the diagnosis.

Giant serpentine aneurysms are rare entity, which have unique presentations and distinct angiographic features, with poor prognosis if not treated. In this paper, a patient with a giant serpentine aneurysm originated from right middle cerebral artery was reported. A 38-year-old woman suffered from

Giant serpentine aneurysms are rare and have distinct angiographic findings. The rarity, large size, complex anatomy and hemodynamic characteristics of giant serpentine aneurysms make treatment difficult. We report a case of a giant serpentine aneurysm of the right middle cerebral artery (MCA) that

We report a case of a giant serpentine aneurysm (GSA) of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) that underwent complete spontaneous thrombosis after angiography. The patient was a 24-year-old man who had an acute headache. CT and MR examinations revealed a large partially thrombosed aneurysm of the MCA

We report a case of a giant serpentine aneurysm of the right middle cerebral artery (MCA) that was treated by total excision of the aneurysm with cerebral blood flow control management. Four years later the patient presented with a three month history of headache and angiograms showed a new aneurysm

Serpentine aneurysms of the posterior cerebral artery (PCA) treated by the internal maxillary artery (IMA) bypass are rare. Here, the authors report the case of a 34-year-old male patient who presented with a half-year history of gradual severe headache and right-sided limb monoparesis and

Traditional Alaskan Native healing practices, specifically sweat bathing and hot springs bathing, have medical connotations in that they involve sociocultural factors important to practicing medicine among Alaskan Native people. At Serpentine Hot Springs in northwest Alaska, relief for arthritis,

OBJECTIVE To report our surgical experience using in situ end-to-side bypass for giant serpentine distal anterior cerebral artery aneurysm, unsuitable for microsurgical clipping. METHODS A 49-year-old woman presented with headache and intermittent loss of consciousness. The brain computed tomography

We report a case of a giant serpentine aneurysm (GSA) located at the left internal carotid artery (ICA) and middle cerebral artery (MCA) treated by ligation of the left ICA with superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) anastomosis. The aneurysm form changed variously during the

A giant serpentine aneurysm (GSA) in the anterior cerebral artery (ACA) poses a technical challenge in treatment given its large size, unique neck, and dependent distal vessels. Here we report the case of a GSA in the ACA successfully treated with a combined surgical and endovascular approach. A

Intracranial aneurysm in paediatric age group is rare and association of the aneurysm with congenital vertebral artery anomaly is further rarer. We describe such a case in an 11-year-old male patient who consulted a paediatrician about headache and vertigo, and a noncontrast CT (NCCT) head revealed

A long-term hemodialysis patient with a giant intracranial vascular channel, which has been called a giant serpentine aneurysm, is presented. A 50-year-old man with an eight-year history of hemodialysis treatment was admitted because of headache, nausea and double vision. Computed tomographic scans

Giant serpentine aneurysms are uncommon types of aneurysmal disease and have angiographically authentic features. We report a case of a 44-year-old male with headache and seizure. He presented a giant serpentine aneurysm arising from the middle cerebral artery (MCA). It was a large intracranial

It is now recognized that spinal dural arteriovenous fistula causes myelopathy, resulting from congestive venous hypertension of the spinal cord. We have recently encountered a rare case of high cervical spinal cord dural arteriovenous fistula which caused intracranial subarachnoid hemorrhage. The
