Four cases of suggestive inflammatory aneurysms in patients with neurocysticercosis have been described. We report a case of a 49-year-old woman who presented with subarachnoid haemorrhage from a right middle cerebral artery bifurcation aneurysm and had a casual relationship with neurocysticercosis. At surgery, a viable cysticercus without signs of inflammation or thickened leptomeninges was found in the distal position of the aneurysm. Postoperatively, the patient received albendazole and dextrochlorpheniramine. In the subsequent three years, the patient was asymptomatic and took drugs to prevent convulsion and arterial hypertension. The relationship between NCC and the presence of cerebral aneurysm is discussed.

AbstractAneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is rare in teenagers. We present the case of a 19-year-old woman with an aneurysmal SAH and four anterior circulation aneurysms. Due to the urgency of operative treatment, no initial conventional cerebral angiography was performed. The CT angiography depicted the aortic arch incompletely. The coarctation was discovered on day 5 after ictus in a cerebral angiography for vasospasm surveillance. We believe that in young SAH patients without an explainable predilection for aneurysm formation, imaging of the aortic arch during the initial CT angiography, not to miss a coarctation of the aorta, is highly recommended.

Summary: A 49-year-old man was diagnosed with pre-fibrotic myelofibrosis after acute left lower-limb ischemia requiring amputation and portal vein thrombosis. After surgery he developed heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) with venous thromboembolism, successfully treated with argatroban followed by dabigatran. Our systematic review of the literature supports the use of dabigatran for suspected HIT.
