title: [Treatment of cerebral vein aneurysms in children].
abstract: Aneurysms of the vein of Galen are very rare vascular anomalies found mainly in newborns and infants. In the years 1982-1989 five children with these aneurysms were treated. Their age was from 6 weeks to 16 months, all were males. The diagnosis was based on computed tomography (initial examination) and cerebral angiography. Two cases with hydrocephalus were treated with valves. The main procedure was clipping of supplying vessels. One child died during diagnostic procedures. The results in four operated on patients are good.
