Abstract
Compared to previous studies, our irradiated NPC patients had higher mortality and morbidity rates after aneurysm rupture and a higher angiographic recurrence rate following treatment. Greater vigilance is required in the detection of post-treatment recurrence of these aneurysms due to the higher risk of rupture. The authors recommend dedicated screening of intracranial aneurysms by active surveillance in routine CT protocols or the addition of three-dimensional time-of-flight magnetic resonance angiography in MR protocols.
