[A case of successful surgical treatment for coarctation of the aorta associated with ruptured cerebral aneurysm].

We present a case of a sixteen year old boy with coarctation of the aorta who suffered ruptured cerebral aneurysm. Both cerebral and aortic lesions were successfully corrected. He complained of sudden headache and nausea. Subarachnoid hemorrhage was diagnosed by computed tomography of the head. Cerebroangiography demonstrated coarctation of the aorta. Clipping of cerebral aneurysm was done at first, then three months later, complete resection of the aortic coarctation and artificial graft replacement was done by using femoral veno-arterial cardiopulmonary bypass.
