Abstract

Cerebral aneurysms are arterial lesions characterized by weakening and expansion of a segment of blood vessel. The most common location is in the bifurcations of the arteries of the circle of Willis and the rupture produces a subarachnoid hemorrhage, which can cause death. This article describes the case of a woman of 62 years without pathological or traumatic personal history known, according to the report of death investigation, he vanished while bathing and was declared dead at the scene. After the forensic autopsy, it was found as the cause of death atherosclerotic aneurysm rupture of the left internal carotid artery.
