- We report the case of a 49-year-old woman with a massive subarachnoid haemorrhage in conjunction with trauma. The initial cerebral angiography was normal. Three weeks later she had a second subarachnoid haemorrhage. A repeat angiography demonstrated an eight mm aneurysm of the internal carotid artery bifurcation, a region clearly normal in the previous angiography.

Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage caused by an unusual association of developmental venous anomaly and arteriovenous malformation
- 2006

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We describe three patients who presented with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage resulting from the close association of developmental venous anomaly (DVA) and arteriovenous malformation (AVM). Angioarchitecturally, either the DVA formed the draining pathway for the AVM or they shared a common venous channel. The AVMs were treated by targeted embolization and the DVAs were carefully preserved. It is suggested that the unusual association of an AVM with the less flexible DVA was the cause of hemorrhage.

Vertebrobasilar Dissection with Pseudo-aneurysm or Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: Intracranial Stenting as the Only Treatment. A Report of Three Cases

- Vertebrobasilar dissection may cause ischaemia or subarachnoid haemorrhage and can pose a significant treatment challenge. Endovascular treatment using stents alone has been described but there are few reports of its clinical application. We here report our experiences from three cases of vertebrobasilar dissection and pseudo-aneurysm or subarachnoid hemorrhage treated with stents alone.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article focuses on the treatment of neurovascular diseases, in particular brain arteriovenous malformations (BAVMs), with radiosurgery. The target group for this review is physicians who manage patients with neurovascular diseases, but are not actively engaged in radiosurgery. Radiosurgery for BAVMs is an established treatment with clearly defined risks and benefits. The efficacy of radiosurgery for dural arteriovenous shunts (DAVSs) is probably similar but the treatment has not yet gained the same acceptance. Radiosurgical treatment of cavernomas (cavernous hemangiomas) remains controversial. Well founded predictive models for BAVM radiosurgery show: The probability of obliteration depends on the dose of radiation given to the periphery of the BAVM. The risk of adverse radiation effects depends on the total dose of radiation, i.e. the amount of energy imparted into the tissue. The risk is greater in centrally located lesions. The risk of damage to brainstem nucleii and cranial nerves must be added to the risk predicted from current outcome models. The risk of hemorrhage during the time span before obliteration depends on the BAVM volume, the dose of radiation to the periphery of the lesion and the age of the patient. Central location is a probably also a risk factor.

Spontaneous mirror dissections of cervicocephalic arteries. Pathomechanical considerations
- 2006

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- While so-called twin or mirror aneurysms constitute an established subgroup of multiple aneurysms, simultaneous spontaneous mirror dissections of cervicocephalic artery have not yet been reported as a particular entity. Among the patients treated at our institution since 1989, we identified 74 patients with spontaneous, non-traumatic dissections. Six of these cases presented with simultaneous bilateral dissections and four of the six patients had mirror dissections. Acute or chronic headache was present in all four cases. Additional clinical presentations consisted of impaired consciousness, cranial nerve palsy, and tinnitus. Angiography revealed irregular stenosis, dilatation or aneurysms located in the cervical ICA (internal carotid artery), VA (vertebral artery), or MCA (middle cerebral artery) without evident location bias. Although mirror dissections seems to be an exceptional finding, they may shed light on the vulnerability of different arterial segments to specific diseases. Similar to arterial aneurysm formation, pathogenesis of mirror dissection may involve an underlying “shared defect” in the endothelial cells, since these cells demonstrate a bilateral distribution during embryological development. This particular distribution therefore also provides a chronicle trail of the first trigger striking during embryonic development and demonstrates the segmental vulnerability to highly specific triggers.
