The development of de novo aneurysms after previous successfully treated aneurysms is uncommon. If risk factors are not present the patient may be reassured that the risk of developing a further aneurysm following successful treatment is minimal. Two cases of second aneurysms developing six and eighteen years after successful treatment of a first aneurysm are reported. The risk factors associated with the formation of second aneurysms are emphasized.
