Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To explore the surgical treatment and effect of intracranial anterior circulation aneurysms.
METHODS:Thirty-eight patients with intracranial anterior circulation aneurysms were enrolled, 9 were treated with endovascular embolization,and 29 with pterion approach micro-euthyphoria operation.
RESULTS:One patient was postoperative death. Thirty-four patients were followed up. Among them, 26 were recovery, 1 was botan animation, 2 were meta-palsy, 3 oculomotor palsy, and 2 epilepsy.
CONCLUSION:Surgical treatment of intracranial anterior circulation aneurysms is the first choice to help blood tumor cleaning-up and intracranial pressure degrading. Embolotherapy can be applied for patients unfit for operation, but we do not recommend wide use of it due to preoperative cranial nerve injury.
