Özet

Purpose: To discuss the computed tomographic and angiographic findings of a case with multiple peripheral aneursyms of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery in association with a cerebellar arteriovenous malformation. Methods: The computed tomography and angiography examinations were perpormed. Results: The comuted tomography revealed subarachnoid hemorrhage and directed the radiological evaluation. The exact nature of the vascular pathology was demonstrated by angiopraphy and the diagnosis was stated. Conclusion: Simultaneous occurrence of multiple intracranial aneurysms and arteriovenous malformations is a rare finding and their coexistence in the posterior fossa is extremely uncommon.
