  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

A case of cerebral mycotic aneurysm due to subacute bacterial endocarditis associated with com-plete agenesis of both internal carotid arteries is herein reported in detail.

The patient was an 11-year-old boy who had been admitted to our clinic after a severe sub-arachnoid hemorrhage on July 6, 1972. On ad-mission neurological examination revealed semi-coma, anisocoria (right greater than left), conjugate deviation to the right, loss of light response on the right, and left hemiplegia with pathological reflexes including Babinski or Chaddock. Right common carotid angiography and right retrograde brachial serial angiography demonstrated a saccular aneurysm in the insular portion of the middle cerebral artery and an agenesis of the right internal carotid artery. Two days after the subarachnoid hemorrhage, surgery was performed under hypo-thermia and the neck of the aneurysm was suc-cessfully clipped. Absence of the right internalcarotid artery was also confirmed during the operation.

Post-operative course was uneventful and the patient was discharged in a satisfactory condition. Two months after surgery, however, the patient developed sepsis and expired. Post-mortem ex-amination revealed agenesis of both internal carotid arteries, clipped aneurysm of the right middle cerebral artery, bacterial endocarditis, and horse shoe kidney with four renal arteries.

Up to the present, so far as the authors know,93 cases of cerebral mycotic anerysm of intra vas-cula r origin, 27 cases of unilateral agenesis of the internal carotid artery and only six cases of the bilateral agenesis of the internal carotid artery have been reported. In the reports of 93 cases of cerebral mycotic aneurysm only two had multiple aneurysm. Cardiac anomalies were found in only two out of 33 cases of agenesis of the internal carotid artery.
