Abstract

The management of intracranial aneurysms in elderly patients remains controversial, since the natural history of these lesions is not well understood. The authors describe the case of a 76-year-old woman with documented enlargement of an internal carotid artery aneurysm over 3 years. The management of intracranial aneurysms in elderly patients is discussed.
