Abstract:
Saccular aneurysms of the subarachnoid segment of the internal carotid artery(ICA) are among the most common aneurysms encountered by neurosurgeons. Surgical strategy and techniques to deal with such aneurysms arising from the ophthalmic artery to the ICA bifurcation are described. Intimate understanding of the anatomy and proper surgical technique improve surgical result.
