  • Title: Rapid regrowth of a successfully coiled traumatic pericallosal aneurysm.
    Author: Yuen CM, Kuo YL, Ho JT, Liao JJ.
    Journal: J Clin Neurosci; 2007 Dec; 14(12):1215-9. PubMed ID: 17656097.
    Abstract:
    Regrowth of an intracranial aneurysm is a known complication of endovascular coiling. We report a patient with a traumatic pericallosal aneurysm which was initially treated successfully with endovascular coiling. Six-month follow-up angiography showed aneurysm regrowth with migration of the coils. To our knowledge, recurrence of a coiled pericallosal aneurysm of traumatic etiology has not been previously reported. Endovascular coiling may not be the best primary treatment for traumatic pericallosal artery aneurysms.
