Résumé
It remains unclear whether the additive effect of coexisting intracranial aneurysms increases the risk of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in patients with multiple intracranial aneurysms. We have performed a tentative analysis for the additive effect of coexisting aneurysms. This multi-institutional cross-sectional study included 1781 aneurysms from 746 patients with multiple intracranial aneurysms. Using the generalized linear mixed model, we analyzed risk factors associated with individual aneurysm rupture and assessed the additive risk of SAH for each patient. The coexisting aneurysms number was not significantly associated with individual intracranial aneurysm rupture, both in unadjusted and adjusted analyses. Patient-level analysis found that an increased number of coexisting aneurysms was significantly associated with a greater estimated additive risk ( We found that a greater number of coexisting aneurysms did not increase rupture risk of individual aneurysms, but the potential additive effect might increase SAH risk in patients with multiple intracranial aneurysms.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE
It remains unclear whether the additive effect of coexisting intracranial aneurysms increases the risk of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in patients with multiple intracranial aneurysms. We have performed a tentative analysis for the additive effect of coexisting aneurysms.
METHODS
This multi-institutional cross-sectional study included 1781 aneurysms from 746 patients with multiple intracranial aneurysms. Using the generalized linear mixed model, we analyzed risk factors associated with individual aneurysm rupture and assessed the additive risk of SAH for each patient.
RESULTS
The coexisting aneurysms number was not significantly associated with individual intracranial aneurysm rupture, both in unadjusted and adjusted analyses. Patient-level analysis found that an increased number of coexisting aneurysms was significantly associated with a greater estimated additive risk (
CONCLUSIONS
We found that a greater number of coexisting aneurysms did not increase rupture risk of individual aneurysms, but the potential additive effect might increase SAH risk in patients with multiple intracranial aneurysms.
