Rerupture of Cerebral Aneurysms During Angiography
AJNR 16:539-542, Saitoh,H.,et al, 1995
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
To assess the incidence of angiography-related rerupture of intracranial aneurysms and to analyze other risk factors of this complication.Although angiography within 6 hours after initial intracranial aneurysm rupture was associated with a higher rate of rerupture,the incidence of rerupture in this study(4.8%)was much lower than those reported previously(20%to 38. 5%).The present findings suggest that emergency angiography within 6 hours after aneurysm rupture,which enables neurosurgeons to carry out early surgery,should not be discouraged.
