Multiple cerebral aneurysms in identical twins.

T Hagen1, K Neidl, U Piepgras.   

Abstract

We report the finding of multiple cerebral aneurysms in a pair of identical twins. One twin had subarachnoid hemorrhage and intracerebral hematoma; her sister had subarachnoid hemorrhage and intraventricular bleeding. Angiography in both cases showed multiple cerebral aneurysms. It is appropriate to recommend a cerebral angiographic examination of an asymptomatic twin after the other twin has suffered an aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.
