[Co-existing aneurysm and arteriovenous malformation--case report (author's transl)].
A patient was presented with both an aneurysm of the frontobasal branch of the right anterior cerebral artery and an arterio-venous malformation fed by the same artery. A 36-year-old man with sudden headache, nausea and vomiting was admitted to the emergency clinic on July, 4, 1974. On admission, he was slightly lethargic and complained of severe headache. The blood pressure was 112 systolic and 64 diastolic. He showed no abnormal findings except for nuchal stiffness and bloody liquor (pressure 260 mmH2o). A right carotid angiogram revealed an aneurysm, 1.0 cm in diameter, on the frontabasal branch of the right anterior cerebral artery and distal to the aneurysm the artery continued to an arteriovenous malformation. No other vascular lesion was observed by other angiographies. On July, 24, 1974, the parent artery (frontobasal branch) of the aneurysm was clipped and the part of right frontal lobe containing the nidus excisted. The patient's post operative course was uneventful.
