Abstract: Objective To investigate the effectiveness and safety of ballon-assisted surgical wrapping-clipping for the treatment of blood blister-like aneurysms (BBA) of internal carotid artery. Methods The clinical data of 9 patients with BBA of internal carotid artery who were treated by ballon-assisted surgical wrapping-clipping from August 2011 to June 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. Results All 9 patients were successfully treated with surgical wrapping-clipping in ballon-assisted technique. The BBA had no rebleeding.Nine cases were followed up clinically for six months. Digital subtractive angiography demonstrated no aneurysm in these patients, and showed no stenosis in the parent artery. Conclusions Ballon-assisted surgical wrapping-clipping in the treatment of BBA is effective and safety. It may help to reduce the risks of BBA rebleeding and recurrence.
