초록

After treatment of unilateral vertebral artery dissecting aneurysm (VADA), de novo VADA rarely occurs on the contralateral side. In this article, we report a case of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) due to de novo VADA in the contralateral vertebral artery (VA) 3 years after parent artery occlusion of unilateral VADA, with a review of the literature. A 47-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital complaining of headache and impaired consciousness. Head computed tomography showed SAH, and three-dimensional computed tomography angiography showed a fusiform aneurysm in the left VA. We performed an emergency parent artery occlusion. Three years and 3 months after the initial treatment, the patient presented to our hospital with complaints of headache and neck pain. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed SAH, and magnetic resonance angiography revealed de novo VADA in the right VA. We performed a stent-assisted coil embolization. The patient had a good postoperative course and was discharged with a modified Rankin scale score of 0. Long-term follow-up is necessary in patients with VADA because contralateral de novo VADA can develop even several years after the initial treatment.
