Multiple cerebral aneurysms secondary to cardiac myxoma.

A 45-year-old lady presented with transient ischemic attack symptoms. Subsequent CT and DSA revealed multiple fusiform dilatations of cerebral vessels. A search for sources of emboli led to an atrial myxoma being found on echocardiogram. She made a good recovery after resection of the atrial myxoma. The aneurysms were managed conservatively. We discuss the association of multiple cerebral aneurysms with atrial myxoma.
