AB SUMMARY: We present a unique case of multiple sCADs occurring after a ruptured intracranial aneurysm embolization. We discuss the impact of head extension during embolization as the prevailing factor in multiple artery dissections in this case and point out another cause of new-onset neurologic deficit in patients with aneurysmal SAH.
