[Aneurysms of the coronary arteries. Apropos of a case of bilateral aneurysm successfully treated by surgery]

Successful surgical management of multiple aneurysms of the coronary arteries by means of an aorto-coronary by-pass was later followed by equal success in the treatment of a double aneurysm of the carotid siphon. The literature appears not to contain any previous report of such an association. The pathogenesis, complications and therapeutic management of this uncommon branch of coronary pathology are discussed.
