Delayed aneurysm rerupture following total endovascular occlusion.

Endovascular coiling is a well established technique for the treatment of selected intracranial aneurysms, but its long-term efficacy, including the rate of rehaemorrhage from treated lesions, remains to be clearly determined. We report a case in which the rerupture of a small aneurysm occurred 12 months after embolization, despite angiographic occlusion on immediate post-procedural and 6-month check angiography.
