✓ An autopsy study was made of the size of 191 saccular intracranial aneurysms (54 ruptured, 137 unruptured). Variations with age and sex, and ruptured and unruptured state were recorded and analyzed. Measurements on unfixed, unruptured aneurysms inflated by perfusion under 70 mm Hg pressure indicated that the size of aneurysms as generally determined in autopsy material is deceptively low.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
