“…Intracranial tumor surgery may also cause traumatic aneurysms (9,29). In aneurysms that are within or adjacent to a brain tumor, the tumor invasion of the aneurysm wall point toward a causal relationship between the growth of the tumor and the development of the aneurysm (3,17,23). Development of cerebral aneurysm by tumor invasion is linked to the histology of tumor (2).…”

“…Coexistent gliomas and cerebral aneurysms are generally located in the same region (3,4). In the case that the tumor and aneurysm are in the same region, histopathological examination for infiltration of the aneurysm wall from neoplastic cells has been demonstrated (3, 4,7) but a rapid growth of the tumor does not give enough time to produce mechanisms which could lead to the formation of an aneurysm (5).…”

“…Surgical treatment was undertaken in 72% of all cases (16). The treatment options of an aneurysm with primary brain tumor include conservative management (if unruptured), surgical clipping of the aneurysm and excision of the tumor either simultaneously or sequentially, or endovascular coiling of the aneurysm followed by surgical excision of the tumor (3,6,11,22,24). Clipping for ruptured cerebral aneurysm and resection of the brain tumor is the best treatment option.…”

The primary brain tumors associated with cerebral aneurysms are rare in neurosurgical practice. The present article constitutes an evaluation of the management of coexistent primary brain tumor and cerebral aneurysm. A retrospective study of three cases of primary brain tumor with cerebral aneurysm was performed. We evaluated the complications and clinic outcomes by assessing the clinical and imaging findings. Case 1 presented with a subarachnoid hemorrhage from an aneurysm of the anterior communicating artery, with an incidental left frontal oligodendroglioma. Case 2 presented with chronic headache due to left frontal convexity meningioma, with proximal internal carotid artery aneurysm which was found incidentally during preoperative magnetic resonance angiography. Case 3 was admitted to our hospital complaining of headache, memory disturbance, and weakness in her left lower extremity. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed right frontal lymphoma and an unruptured aneurysm at the left middle cerebral artery. Preoperative magnetic resonance imaging revealed right frontal lymphoma and unruptured left middle cerebral artery. The frequency of primary brain tumor and cerebral aneurysm coexistence is increasing due to improvements in high-resolution imaging. In these complicated cases, the management will differ according to each pathology present, and this is an important problem for a neurosurgeon.

“…But, the most common etiology of distal intracranial aneurysms is an infection with mycotic emboli which may result as a secondary aneurysmal formation 3,12) . They may also be related to trauma, vasculitis, tumor emboli or directly to an intracranial neoplasm 1,3,5,11) . In this case, neither a mycotic emboli nor a trauma was a cause of the aneurysm.…”

Middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysms are a common source of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). But, ruptured distal MCA aneurysm is very rare, and their clinical and radiological features are poorly understood. Microsurgical repair remains the most common method used to treat distal MCA aneurysm, even though endovascular coiling has been favored recently. We report our experience of successful coiling for ruptured distal MCA aneurysm. In selected patients, coiling may be a good treatment option for ruptured distal MCA aneurysm.
