چکیده

Accepted, January 20, 2005. NOT INFREQUENTLY, PATIENTS with bilateral cerebral aneurysms are encountered. In such patients, the ability to treat bilateral aneurysms through a unilateral approach spares the patient the risk and inconvenience associated with a separate craniotomy. The contralateral approach for aneurysm repair is technically feasible and safe in appropriately selected patients. Herein, we review our technique for maximizing contralateral exposure and clipping contralateral aneurysms through the four anatomic triangles that serve as corridors in this approach.

Basal Interhemispheric Approach for Medially Oriented Internal Carotid Artery Aneurysm

Surgical approaches for medially oriented internal carotid artery aneurysms include the ipsilateral pterional approach, the contralateral pterional approach, the interhemispheric approach, and the interhemispheric-subfrontal approach. In the ipsilateral pterional approach, the internal carotid artery obstructs direct visualization of the aneurysmal neck. In the contralateral pterional approach,...
