Abstract

The first part of this thesis addresses the long-term follow-up of patients with a history of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in whom the ruptured aneurysm was treated by means of clipping. The second part describes the effectiveness and consequences of screening for new intracranial aneurysms in patients with a history of SAH and in relatives with familial SAH.
