چکیده

Introduction: Recent advancement of intravascular technique has minimized the operative invasiveness. In rivalry with this technique, aneurysmal clipping has become less and less invasive. Hitherto, three less invasive surgical approaches as supraorbital keyhole approach, lateral supraorbital keyhole approach, and pterion keyhole approach, have been proposed for the clipping of the anterior circulation aneurysms.

The role of pterional keyhole approach in the microsurgical clipping of anterior circulation artery aneurysms: experiences with 26 cases and literature review

Background: Although the pterional approach is commonly used for microsurgical clipping of intracranial aneurysms of anterior circulation, the incision and temporalis muscle dissection impact postoperative recovery and cosmetic outcomes. The pterional keyhole approach offers similar microsurgical corridors with a substantially shorter incision, less muscle dissection, and a smaller craniotomy f...
