Presentation
Sudden collapse.
Patient Data
Intraparenchymal hemorrhage with lower attenuating "filling defect". Hemorrhage extends into ventricular system as well as into subarachnoid space. Minor hydrocephalus.
EVD has been placed. CTA demonstrates a terminal ICA aneurysm.
Large ICA aneurysm coiled.
Case Discussion
Initial CT demonstrates intraparenchymal, subarachnoid and intraventricular blood, with hydrocephalus.
Within the hematoma, a rounded lower density area is present which is suspicious for a large aneurysm.
CTA (not shown) confirmed the presence of an aneurysm which was further imaged with angiography.
The aneurysm was filled with numerous coils.
