Association of single and multiple aneurysms with tobacco abuse: an @neurIST risk analysis

Published inNeurosurgical Focus, vol. 47, no. 1, E9
Publication date2019
Abstract

Although several studies have suggested that the incidence of intracranial aneurysms (IAs) is higher in smokers, the higher prevalence of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in smokers remains uncertain. It is unclear whether smoking additionally contributes to the formation of multiple aneurysms and the risk of rupture. The aim of this study was to determine whether smoking is associated with IA formation, multiplicity, or rupture.
