Description
Yu Okuma and colleagues report endovascular treatment of a brain hemorrhage in a 97-year-old woman. Their 2026 case weighs care choices for the oldest patients. Subarachnoid hemorrhage in nonagenarians poses a grim prognosis. Treatment must balance that outlook against procedural burden. The woman arrived with headache, dizziness, and vomiting.
Scans found bleeding plus a ruptured dissecting aneurysm on a small artery. Conservative care was weighed first by the team. Her family chose active treatment, so coil embolization went ahead. Access came through a distal radial route in the wrist. The bulged segment was blocked while artery flow was preserved. No complications followed, and blockage was near complete. Integrated team care around the procedure shaped the outcome.
