✓ A young man who had a long history of sinusitis developed subarachnoid hemorrhage and died. Autopsy showed a mycotic aneurysm of fungal origin at the junction of the right posterior cerebral and internal carotid arteries. Four of five reported cases of fungal aneurysm were due to Aspergillus infection.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
