Department of Neurosurgery, National Hospital Organization (NHO) Osaka National Hospital, Osaka, Japan.
Article Synopsis
- Intracranial infectious aneurysms (IIAs) are very rare, and the case discussed is about an 81-year-old woman with a fungal infection causing an unruptured aneurysm in her brain.
- After some treatments and monitoring, her aneurysm grew in size, leading doctors to place a special type of stent to help fix it.
- The woman improved after the stent was put in, but doctors stressed the importance of treating the infection first to prevent future problems.

Background: The significance of the expression of aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 (ALDH1), a cancer stem cell marker, for predicting the recurrence of estrogen receptor (ER)-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer is still poorly understood. The value of ALDH1 in predicting the time of recurrence remains unknown.
Methods: In total, 184 patients with early distant recurrence, 134 patients with late distant recurrence, and 321 control patients without recurrence for more than 10 years after starting initial treatment for ER-positive/HER2-negative breast cancer, registered in 9 institutions, were analyzed.
