A 43-year-old woman with two incidental paraclinoid internal carotid artery aneurysms underwent coil embolization of the larger superior hypophyseal aneurysm and 10 weeks later underwent follow-up angiography that showed regression of the smaller, more distal paraclinoid aneurysm. We demonstrate that, although it is a rare occurrence, aneurysms can involute. We discuss potential mechanisms of this phenomenon and review the literature on aneurysm regression.
一名43岁女性，患有两个偶然发现的鞍旁颈内动脉瘤，对较大的垂体上动脉瘤进行了弹簧圈栓塞，10周后进行随访血管造影，结果显示较小的、位置更远的鞍旁动脉瘤有所缩小。我们证明，尽管这种情况很少见，但动脉瘤可以自行消退。我们讨论了这种现象的潜在机制，并回顾了有关动脉瘤消退的文献。
