Spontaneous Healing of a Ruptured Blood Blister-Like Aneurysm

DSA remains an important imaging study for the detection of small aneurysms, because CT angiography might not have sufficient resolution. Our unique case provides strong evidence that BBAs represent a parent artery focal dissection. BBAs can remodel over time, usually with enlargement and repeat rupture if untreated. It is possible, as we have demonstrated, that some small lesions presenting with SAH might spontaneously heal without intervention.
