Abstract :

A 52-year-old female came with complaints of intense headaches for the past 10 days. The CT brain revealed SAH in the bilateral Sylvain fissure (left more than right) with Hunt and Hess Grade 1. An urgent CT cerebral angiogram was done, which revealed multiple bilateral MCA, ACA, and basilar top aneurysms. DSA was done the next day, which revealed multiple aneurysms, a total of fourteen in number. Such multiple aneurysms in a single patient were never reported in the literature until now, according to the present author's knowledge.
