DISCUSSION
ThepresentstudyofrupturedaneurysmsinbothanteriorandposteriorcirculationsfoundthattheindicationsforadditionalDSangiographyintheanteriorcirculationaresimilartothatfoundpreviously,butweexperiencedsomenewatypicalcases.Treatmentoffusiformaneurysmsdependsonthehaemodynamicinformation,whichcouldonlybeobtainedbyDSangiography.ACoAaneurysmassociatedwithAVM,althoughtheinitialCTindicatedthattheaneurysmhadbled,requiredaccurateevaluationoftheAVMpriortosurgery.Clipartifactsaffected3D-CTangiographyincasesofrecurrentSAHafterclippingsurgery,so3DCTangiographyisnotindicatedforsuchcases.
