Background: Segmental arterial mediolysis (SAM) causes subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) due to intracranial aneurysm rupture and arterial dissection. We encountered a case of SAM-related SAH due to ruptured dissection of the A1 segment of the anterior cerebral artery concomitant with internal carotid artery (ICA) dissection. Case Description: A 53-year-old man presented with SAH due to a ruptured right A1 dissecting aneurysm. The aneurysm was trapped; however, 7 days after the onset of SAH, he experienced right hemiparesis and aphasia. Angiography showed left ICA dissection; urgent carotid artery stenting was performed, leading to symptom improvement. Abdominal computed tomography angiography showed aneurysms of the celiac and superior mesenteric arteries. He was diagnosed with SAM based on clinical, imaging, and laboratory findings. Conclusion: In the acute phase of SAM-related SAH, cerebral ischemia could occur due to both cerebral vasospasm and intracranial or cervical artery dissection. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
