Multiple Intracranial Aneurysms in Songklanagarind Hospital
Phuenpathom N Mail, Ratanalert S , Sripairojkul B

We retrospectively reviewed the 107 patients on whom direct surgery was performed for
intracranial aneurysms between December 18, 1984 and July 25, 1996. The incidence of multiple
intracranial aneurysms in our hospital is 6.5 per cent (71107 cases). There were 16 aneurysms in 7
cases with multiple aneurysms. There were 2 and 5 patients with 3 and 2 aneurysms respectively.
The most common site was at the junction of posterior communicating artery (PCoA) and internal
carotid artery (ICA). The preoperative conditions of the patients were closely related to the operative
results. We performed direct surgery on bilateral aneurysms by bifrontal approaches. There
was no mortality.
