Spontaneous Regression of an Intracranial Aneurysm Following Remote Aneurysm Clipping: Evaluation with High-Resolution Vessel Wall MRI

Abstract

Spontaneous regression of an unruptured aneurysm is very rare. We present a case of a 64-year-old woman with an unruptured cerebral aneurysm in which spontaneous regression occurred after contralateral clipping. High-resolution magnetic resonance imaging showed that the aneurysm had decreased in size and there was no evidence of thrombus. Level of Evidence Case, Level IV.
