ABSTRACT
Background:
Perianeurysmal cyst formation after endovascular treatment of cerebral aneurysms is a rare complication; however, the number of reports has gradually increased in recent years due to the development of several endovascular treatments. Case Description We present a case of delayed perianeurysmal cyst enlargement 8 years after endovascular treatment for multiple recurrences of a large cerebral aneurysm in the anterior communicating artery. The patient presented with obstructive hydrocephalus caused by an enlarged perianeurysmal cyst. The patient underwent cyst fenestration using neuroendoscopy and ventriculoperitoneal shunting, recovered from the clinical symptoms, and had a good prognosis. Histopathological findings showed that the cyst wall contained a fibrotic layer under the monoependymal layer with hemosiderosis without evidence of neovascularization or inflammatory cell infiltration. These findings suggest that the origin of the perianeurysmal cyst wall is not the aneurysm itself but the adjacent brain tissue.Conclusion:
Perianeurysmal cysts can develop during long-term follow-up, and clinicians should consider surgical treatment, including cyst fenestration, using neuro-endoscopy if the cyst presents with clinical symptoms.
