  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

A 61-year-old woman was referred to our department on February 12, 1991, due to a fusiform aneurysm of her left internal carotid artery (ICA). She had received aneurysm surgery twice in other hospitals in the past. The first operation, in June, 1980, was for an unruptured, symptomatic left internal carotid-posterior communicat-ing aneurysm and the aneurysm disappeared completely after the neck clipping procedure was carried out by one of the authors. In November, 1990, she suffered from subarachnoid hemorrhage with a hematoma in the left frontal lobe. A ruptured anterior communicating aneurysm was clipped in another hospital, where abnor-mal dilatation of the left ICA was pointed out. She was referred to our department after a ventricular peritoneal shunt operation.

Though the postoperative angiogram performed in 1980 had shown complete disappearance of the left IC-PC aneurysm, it was presumed that the fusiform aneurysm which she presented at our department was re-current because it existed in almost the same place as the aneurysm which had been clipped. It was also in con-tact with a clip applied in 1980. In accord with the pa-tient's desire to receive surgery, the fusiform aneurysm was operated on directly, and it was remarkably reduced in size by dome clipping. During a clip, a Sugita booster clip was useful for preventing a slip-out of the clip appli-ed on the aneurysmal dome. The patient was discharged about 20 days after the operation and returned to her usual life.

A recurrent fusiform aneurysm of the ICA arising af-ter the neck clipping of IC-PC aneurysm has rarely been encountered. Causes of the recurrence of aneurysm after the neck clipping procedure are also discussed.
