Microsurgical management of a ruptured intracranial mycotic aneurysm in infancy.
Introduction: During infancy, infectious aneurysms are uncommon and potentially fatal lesions with an imminent risk of intracranial hemorrhage development.
Case presentation: A 1-month-old infant presented with loss of consciousness and clonic movements of the right superior limb after a work-up for Hirschsprung's disease. His physical exam revealed stupor, miosis, anterior fontanelle swelling, and hyperreflexia of the right superior limb. Blood cultures were positive for Candida albicans. In addition, brain imaging revealed an intraparenchymal hematoma in the left temporal lobe and a saccular aneurysm at the M3 segment of the left middle cerebral artery. Upon careful discussion with the patient's family, he underwent evacuation of the hematoma and aneurysm repair. His postoperative clinical course was uneventful. At the 5-month follow-up, a brain MRI showed encephalomalacia in the area of prior hemorrhage. Furthermore, he had preserved motor function and adequate psychomotor development on subsequent pediatric evaluations.
Conclusion: Microsurgical management of ruptured mycotic aneurysms demands a systematic work-up and nuanced appraisal of clinical and aneurysmal factors. Operating in a confined space and considering the fragile nature of aneurysms are of utmost relevance for effectively treating these lesions.
期刊介绍:
The journal has been expanded to encompass all aspects of pediatric neurosciences concerning the developmental and acquired abnormalities of the nervous system and its coverings, functional disorders, epilepsy, spasticity, basic and clinical neuro-oncology, rehabilitation and trauma. Global pediatric neurosurgery is an additional field of interest that will be considered for publication in the journal.
