    Author: Hirai T, Korogi Y, Goto K, Ogata N, Sakamoto Y, Takahashi M.
    Journal: Acta Radiol; 1996 Jan; 37(1):49-51. PubMed ID: 8611324.
    Abstract:
    A patient with carotid-cavernous sinus fistula associated with fibromuscular dysplasia, who died from rupture of an associated splenic aneurysm despite successful treatment of the CCF, is reported. When multivessel involvement with aneurysmal dilatation is observed in patients with fibromuscular dysplasia, the possibility of aneurysm ruptures in any of the arteries should be considered.
