Abstract
We report a case of an asymptomatic vasospasm with a focal, reversible apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) decrease after a middle cerebral artery aneurysm rupture. This isolated decrease of ADC has not yet been reported in this pathological situation. It could be interesting to predict the risk of ischemic delayed complications of vasospasm.
