Dissecting intracranial aneurysms
Abstract
The clinical, operative and pathological characteristics of a dissecting aneurysm of the vertebral artery are presented. A review of the literature suggests that this type of intracranial aneurysm is being recognized with increasing frequency and can be characterized by its symptomatology and radiological patterns. A set of guidelines for the management of dissecting intracranial aneurysms is proposed.
