MIDDLE CEREBRAL ARTERY PSEUDOANEURYSM POST GUN-SHOT WOUND
Abstract
A pseudoaneurysm of the genu of left middle cerebral artery was demonstrated by i.v.enhanced CT scan and by left carotid angiography after a gun shot wound in a 31 year-old man. The contrast leak was seen at the angiographic injection. The active bleeding was noted in the unenhanced CT brain scan. The traumatic pseudoaneurysm of the middle cerebral artery was considered rare.
