Computed tomography (CT) of the head showed subarachnoid hemorrhage with severe intraventricular extension and right temporal intraparenchymal hematoma (Figure 43-1). Cerebral angiography demonstrated 2 aneurysms of the carotid siphon, at the origin of posterior communicating arteries, bilaterally, with likely bleeding from the right one (9 mm diameter, neck 3.5 mm). An external ventricular drain was placed, the blood pressure was controlled with nicardipine drip, and the patient underwent endovascular coiling of the right carotid artery aneurysm.
