    Abstract:
    Among arterial aneurysms of the brain, multiple aneurysms occur on the average in 12.9% patients as evidenced by angiographic studies and in 22.7 as shown by autopsies. The study was undertaken to examine 66 patients with multiple aneurysms who had undergone surgical treatment. Their mean age was 45 years. The examination has demonstrated that total cerebral angiography should be performed to diagnose multiple aneurysms. The comprehensive studies of the patients that involved neurological examinations, computed tomography of the brain and total cerebral angiography have enabled the ruptured aneurysms to be detected in 68% of cases and in 85% when aneurysms are located in various vascular beds. While defining the surgical policy for patients with multiple aneurysms in the acute hemorrhagic period, it is necessary to bear in mind that there can be repeated hemorrhages from the previously unbled aneurysms.
