Pitfalls in diagnosing intracranial aneurysms.

K K Jain

    American Family Physician
    |January 1, 1983
    PubMed
    Summary

    Delayed diagnosis of intracranial aneurysms is common, with many cases missed by referring physicians. Early detection requires a high index of suspicion and advanced imaging like computed tomography.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Radiology
    • Medical Diagnostics

    Background:

    • Intracranial aneurysms pose significant diagnostic challenges.
    • Delayed or incorrect diagnoses are frequently observed in patient cases.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the incidence of diagnostic delays in intracranial aneurysms.
    • To emphasize the importance of diagnostic tools for intact aneurysms.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of medical records for 90 consecutive patients.
    • Analysis of diagnostic accuracy and methods used.

    Main Results:

    • A significant number of patients (31/90) had their diagnosis missed by the referring physician.
    • Angiography can detect aneurysms as small as 2 mm.
    • Computed tomography with contrast enhancement is crucial for diagnosing intact aneurysms.

    Conclusions:

    • A high index of suspicion is critical for identifying potential intracranial aneurysms.
    • Advanced imaging techniques are essential for timely and accurate diagnosis.
    • Improving diagnostic pathways can lead to better patient outcomes.
