The authors have attempted to assess whether there is any standard rate of growth of intracranial aneurysms. Angiographic studies were performed on 67 patients with 82 aneurysms with intervals between angiograms ranging from a few days to 10 years. Examination of these records showed no consistent rate of change in size, possibly partly because of inherent inaccuracies in the method, which are discussed. The clinical reasons for the repeat studies are briefly mentioned. It is concluded that it is unwise to wait and see what may happen to any but perhaps the smallest aneurysm.
作者试图评估颅内动脉瘤是否存在任何标准的生长速率。对67例患者的82个动脉瘤进行了血管造影研究，血管造影之间的间隔从几天到10年不等。对这些记录的检查显示，动脉瘤大小没有一致的变化速率，这可能部分是由于该方法本身存在的不准确性，本文对此进行了讨论。文中简要提及了重复研究的临床原因。得出的结论是，除了可能是最小的动脉瘤之外，对其他任何动脉瘤都采取观望态度是不明智的。
