ABSTRACT
Small unruptured aneurysms are thought to have a low risk of rupture, but the management of such lesions is still controversial. A 73-year-old man with a small anterior communication artery aneurysm, 4 mm in diameter, while on follow-up, developed an aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage 2 weeks after the detection of a newly emerged bleb on the surface of the aneurysm. In conclusion, the formation of a bleb should be considered as a warning sign of an impending rupture, and treatment should be provided even for patients with small aneurysms.
