International education: 20 years after implementation of a training program.

abstract：:Despite the recent interest in familial cerebral aneurysms, the epidemiology, natural history, pattern of inheritance, screening of asymptomatic relatives, and the search for a biochemical marker remain problematic. To assess these issues, we report the results of our prospective study of 30 patients with 38 aneurysms...
