The authors report a series of 46 @entity1 operated for an @entity438 from January 92 to January 96 in H  tel-Dieu de France. There were 28 males and 18 females ranging from 22 to 69 years. Forty-four @entity1 presented a typical clinical pattern of @entity510 . In 20 cases (45%), correct diagnosis was not made at the time of @entity548 but at another outpatient visit or at a @entity548 recurrence. Cerebral angiography was performed in all our @entity1 . The most frequent aneurysmal location was at the anterior communicating artery (n = 20). Surgical total exclusion of the @entity439 was possible in 45 @entity1 . Forty-one @entity1 had a favourable outcome but three presented important neurological sequelae. We encountered 2 postoperative deaths due to irreversible arterial @entity2553 . These results suggest that the preoperative neurological state and the occurrence of an arterial @entity2553 are the main prognostic factors of the @entity438 . Early diagnosis and treatment allow to avoid rebleeding, mostly responsible of the poor neurological status, and to better manage the arterial @entity2553 in order to improve the outcome.
