Abstract
Cerebral aneurysms of an infectious etiology, so-called "mycotic" aneurysms, are rare neurovascular pathologies. Primary treatment may be targeted on the aneurysm, but care has to be driven by the underlying pathology to prevent an often fatal clinical course with a mortality rate reaching 90%. 2 case reports are presented, and the diagnostic and therapeutic issues outlined by reviewing the literature.
