Cerebral aneurysm associated with multiple endocrine neoplasia, type 1 —case report

Abstract

Cerebral aneurysm associated with pituitary adenoma and other endocrine dysfunctions occurred in a 45-year-old female suffering from multiple endocrine neoplasia, type 1 (Wermer's syndrome). She died of subarachnoid hemorrhage secondary to rupture of the aneurysm. Pituitary adenoma and/or other endocrine dysfunctions associated with multiple endocrine neoplasia, type 1 may be a factor in the aneurysm formation. © 1993, The Japan Neurosurgical Society.
