pubmed:abstractText |
A 4-month-old female child presented with a huge posterior fossa mass lesion and severe hydrocephalus. Six hours after a ventriculoperitoneal shunt procedure, her condition worsened and she died. Autopsy showed extensive intracranial hemorrhage due to rupture of a posterior inferior cerebellar artery aneurysm. The probable causes of the rupture of the aneurysm were mechanical effects or changes in cerebral blood flow.
