A rare case report of multiple intracranial aneurysms with factor VII deficiency
Pathogenesis of intracranial aneurysms is multi-factorial. Origin of aneurysm may be acquired or genetic, and there may be more than one aneurysm simultaneously, or there may be the formation of a new aneurysm after treatment of previous one. Collagen vascular disorders, neurofibromatosis, polycystic kidney disease, and so many other disorders are associated with multiple intracranial aneurysms. As Factor VII deficiency is also genetic in origin, there might be a correlation between deficiency of the same with multiple intracranial aneurysms. Only one such case is reported in the literature and we are reporting such a rare case having a similar association.
