[Multiple intracranial aneurysms associated with primary hyperaldosteronism].

Multiple intracranial aneurysms have been reported in association with polycystic disease of the kidney, brain tumor, pituitary adenoma and coarctation of the aorta. We report the association of multiple aneurysms with primary hyperaldosteronism due to bilateral adrenal hyperplasia in an 18 year old left-handed man who presented with subarachnoid hemorrhage and arterial hypertension. We report the excellent outcome of this patient in spite of a difficult and surgical management. Ligation of all three intracranial aneurysms was performed after an extra-intracranial arterial bypass was done as a protective measure.

Balint's syndrome.

Balint's syndrome is usually attributed to bilateral parieto-occipital lesions. In several reported cases involvement of the frontal lobes was also documented and could be responsible for the "spasmodic fixation" often recorded in these patients. We report a case of Balint's syndrome in a patient with bilateral frontal and parieto-occipital metastases demonstrated by CT scan and confirmed by postmortem examination.
