Figure 1. Imaging angiogram and intraoperative findings of case 1 patient. The preoperative CT (A) showed the right frontal lobe blood vessels and the nearby old hemorrhage. The intraoperative findings (B) revealed the aneurysmal dilatation with the purple membrane and the postoperative DSA showed the arteriovenous fistula artery stump (C, arrow).

Figure 2. Imaging angiogram and intraoperative findings of case 2 patient. The preoperative CT (A) showed left frontal hemorrhage and the MRI T2-weighted image revealed hypointensity in the drainage vein (B, arrow). The intraoperative findings revealed the aneurysmal dilatation (C, arrow in blue) and its feeding artery (C, arrow in yellow).
