| intracranial mycotic aneurysm | <radiology> 3% of all intracranial aneurysms; multiple in 20%, source: subacute bacterial endocarditis (65%), acute bacterial endocarditis (9%), menigitis (9%), septic thrombophlebitis (9%), myxoma, location: peripheral to first bifurcation of major vessel (64%), often near the surface of brain (especially over convexities), Note: develops recurrent bleeding more frequently than congenital aneurysms See: mycotic aneurysm (12 Dec 1998) |
| thoracic aortic aneurysm | <radiology> Normal size: 4-5 cm, most aneurysms rupture when more than 10 cm, mean age: 65 years; M:F = 3:1 associated with: hypertension, coronary artery disease, abdominal aortic aneurysm symptoms: substernal, back, shoulder pain (25%), superior vena cava syndrome, dysphagia, stridor, dyspnea, hoarseness see: aortic aneurysm (12 Dec 1998) |
