- Prevalence and Characteristics of Intracranial Aneurysms in Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia
In this retrospective study, the authors evaluated the prevalence and characteristics of intracranial aneurysms in patients with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia with brain vascular malformations. In their study cohort of 180 patients with HHT and brain vascular malformations, the authors demonstrated that the prevalence of intracranial aneurysm in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia is comparable with that in the general population without clear association with shunting brain vascular malformations.
