A left middle cerebral artery aneurysm was ruptured and clipped, but a de novo aneurysm on contralateral side ruptured within 5 years in a 38-year-old man. The cause of the formation of de novo aneurysms is unknown and is not consistent with most of current reports.

Abstract Two cases of giant left middle cerebral artery aneurysm presenting with rapidly progressing hemiparesis and aphasia are presented. In both, the computed tomographic scan showed recent intraaneurysmal thrombosis and massive edema and swelling of the cerebral hemisphere. There was no evidence of recent hemorrhage in either case. In both patients, surgical resection of the aneurysm was accomplished, but the outcome was disastrous. The literature is reviewed and the possible mechanisms responsible for brain swelling in these cases are discussed.

To date,S. alactolyticusendocarditis complicated by middle cerebral artery aneurysm has not been reported. We describe the case of a 65-year-old female with a history of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction presenting with confusion and a apical holosystolic murmur. Angiography of the brain identified new bilobed left middle cerebral artery aneurysm. Serial blood cultures grewS. alactolyticus, and aortic and mitral valve vegetation were discovered on transesophageal echocardiography. The patient was treated with antimicrobial therapy, mitral and aortic valve replacements, and microsurgical clipping of cerebral aneurysm. This case serves to highlight the pathogenicity of a sparsely described bacterium belonging to the heterogenousS. boviscomplex.

The authors report the case of a patient whose left middle cerebral artery aneurysm was wrapped with cotton. Occlusion of the middle cerebral artery, probably secondary to a foreign-body inflammatory reaction, developed late in the postoperative course. A computerized tomography scan revealed cerebral infarct, and an enhancing expansive lesion at the site of the aneurysm suggesting the formation of a granuloma. These findings are discussed and the literature is reviewed.

Middle cerebral artery aneurysms, especially those with complex morphology, are considered excellent aneurysms for surgical clipping, given the challenges that exist with current endovascular techniques. We present a case of a large, complex, left middle cerebral artery aneurysm treated with microsurgical clipping. This video highlights critical steps in obtaining proximal and distal control as well as subarachnoid dissection necessary to prepare the aneurysm for final clipping.The video can be found here: http://youtu.be/RlKH2Km9z5Y.
