Multiple intracranial aneurysms in subarachnoid haemorrhage. Which one has bled? A diagnostic dilemma

Abstract

This paper is intended as an illustrative teaching case. It gives a porotype case of a patient with subarachnoid haemorrhage and multiple intracranial aneurysms, where the CT data is non-conclusive as to the source of haemorrhage. The paper then discusses the diagnostic challenges and management pearls, pertaining to such scenarios. The paper concludes with a few “take-home points” that summarise the criteria to be applied in such cases.
