【 摘 要 】

Intracranial aneurysms are focal dilations of an intracranial artery. They can be discovered incidentally, during a hemorrhagic stroke or subarachnoid hemorrhage , but it is rare for it to be detected after an ischemic stroke . The prevalence of the association between symptomatic carotid occlusion or stenosis and intracranial aneurysms is estimated to be 6.3%. We report the case of a patient hospitalized for the management of a stroke in whom investigations had revealed the coexistence of right carotid occlusion and multiple aneurysms in the right middle cerebral artery . The diagnosis was made by CT angiography of supra-aortic trunks.
