Recurrent subarachnoid hemorrhage from untreated ruptured vertebrobasilar dissecting aneurysms.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Frontotemporal craniotomies are commonly performed for a variety of neurosurgical pathologies. Infections related to craniotomies cause significant morbidity. We hypothesized that the risk of cranial surgical site infections (SSIs) may be increased in patients whose frontal sinuses are breached during cranio...
