Microsurgical clipping of cerebral aneurysms after the ISAT Study.
نویسندگان
چکیده
This landmark study [9] – somewhat Twainian at first glance – sets the stage for future microsurgery in cerebral aneurysms and SAH. The ISAT Study does not nail microsurgery – it will nail microsurgery in low case load neurosurgical centers and in inexperienced hands. In future neurovascular centers, exovascular and endovascular surgeons are forced to support each other by having the full responsibility over the population in a defined geographical area. Exosurgeons will become far more experienced – less in number but not the last Mohicans.

Risk of Dependency Following Microsurgical Clipping in Good Grade Patients with Ruptured Anterior Circulation Aneurysms
Background: It is well known that the majority of good grade (WFNS I and II) patients who undergo microsurgical clipping achieve a favorable outcome, but still a number of patients who are independent before surgery face unfavorable outcomes signifying the impact of microsurgical clipping. The aim of this study was to quantify the risk of dependency in patients who had no previous neurological ...

See related article, pages ●●●–●●● Early aneurysm repair to prevent recurrent bleeding is central to the management of patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage. Over the past 15 years, endovascular occlusion of cerebral aneurysms has emerged as an alternative to microsurgical clipping, and the relative merits and shortcomings of these 2 approaches have been the subject of considerable discussion i...
متن کاملCombined Endovascular and Microsurgical Management of Complex Cerebral Aneurysms
Cerebral aneurysms are associated with a 50% mortality rate after rupture and patients can suffer significant morbidity during subsequent treatment. Neurosurgical management of both ruptured and unruptured aneurysms has evolved over the years. The historical practice of using microsurgical clipping to treat aneurysms has benefited in the last two decades from tremendous improvement in endovascu...

Intraoperative angiography evaluation of the clippings of cerebral aneurysms was investigated in a series of 38 consecutive patients with unruptured cerebral aneurysms to determine any favorable impact on the outcome. Unexpected findings including major arterial occlusion or residual aneurysm were identified. Specific variables such as the size and site of aneurysm were analyzed to determine th...

Ruptured Intracranial Aneurysms: Treatment Options and Data from Recent Trials. Several therapeutic options are available for the treatment of ruptured intracranial aneurysms. Generally speaking, these procedures can be reconstructive (ie, selective aneurysm occlusion) or deconstructive (ie, parent artery occlusion in conjunction with aneurysm occlusion) in nature. In view of the higher ischemi...
