A middle cerebral artery aneurysm, completely enclosed in a large frontotemporal anaplastic astrocytoma, is demonstrated in a 11-month-old girl admitted for intracranial hypertension. Clipping of the aneurysm along with radical resection was successfully performed. Five years later, follow-up neurological examination is normal, aneurysm occlusion and no evidence of tumor recurrence are demonstrated by angiogram and MRI. The association of brain tumor and aneurysm is discussed, and documented with the only two cases of a neoplasm surrounding on aneurysm reported in the literature.
一名因颅内高压入院的11个月大女孩,其大脑中动脉动脉瘤完全被一个巨大的额颞间变性星形细胞瘤包裹。成功进行了动脉瘤夹闭术并联合根治性切除术。五年后,随访的神经学检查正常,血管造影和磁共振成像显示动脉瘤闭塞且无肿瘤复发迹象。本文讨论了脑肿瘤与动脉瘤的关联,并以文献中仅有的两例肿瘤包裹动脉瘤的病例进行记录。
