How would you treat a pregnant woman with a rupture of cranial aneurysm at the second trimester of pregnancy? A case report.
Abstract
Cerebral aneurysm and aneurysm rupture have rarely been reported in the literature during pregnancy. Aneurysm might rupture and may cause intracranial hemorrhage during or after pregnancy. Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) during pregnancy presents a challenge regarding treatment and management. There is no institution which has a large patient population or experience in managing this condition during pregnancy in the literature. Due to the limited number of cases, there are no available treatment guidelines. Thus, treatment is usually based on a case-by-case approach.
