Endovascular treatment of an adolescent patient with ruptured intracranial aneurysm

The occurrence of intracranial aneurysms in pediatric patients under 18 years of age is between 0,5-2% of all diagnosed aneurysms. We describe our experience with a patient of 10 years old with subarachnoid hemorrhage due to ruptured trilobular aneurysm on the top of the basilar artery, evidenced by CT angiography and DSA. Powered been consistently excluded from the bloodstream of two lobules of the aneurysm through coiling. Changed conditions of hemodynamics in aneurysmal sac fed to subsequent selftrombosing the third lobe of the aneurysm. Made control angiography after 10 months confirmed the good result of endovascular treatment and no neurological deficit. In conclusion it can be noted that in present conditions with a multidisciplinary approach endovascular treatment can be applied in this group of patients.
