Adequate bony exposure and acraniotomythat provides the most direct route to the aneurysm limit the need for brain retraction and provide adequate proximal control and maximal degrees of freedom to maximize clip application angle (Fig. 9.1). The pterional craniotomy is the workhorse ofcerebrovascular ...
A cerebral aneurysm clip (1) composed of blade parts (2a, 2b) capable of clipping the root of a lump of cerebral aneurysm and a spring part (3) of imparting a clipping force to the said blade parts, which is characterized in that the said blade parts are made of a synthetic resin ...
Figure 4. A titanium clip is placed across the neck of an aneurysm so that the blood flows through the artery (arrow), and not into the aneurysm. Endovascular coiling: is performed during an angiogram in the radiology department. A catheter is inserted into an artery in the groin and the...

(PCA). As these aneurysms grow, the dome of SCA aneurysms elevates these arteries and their associated perforators away from the aneurysm neck, making their preservation more likely. To treat these aneurysms, the blades of the clip must be passed into the axilla of the PCA (or shoulder ...
The global market for aneurysm clips is experiencing rapid technological advancements in terms of portability and miniaturization such as clip appliers and tipsters which can be used endoscopically or laparoscopically without making significant incisions on a patient’s body surface area. For instance, ...
(Fig. 10). A recurrence may not be significant enough to require treatment. If a major portion of the aneurysm remains unfilled, additional coils or a surgical clip can be placed to stop the growth. Overall, 5-10% of patients will undergo a second treatment to place additional coils, ...
Clipping is an open surgery performed under general anesthesia. An opening is cut in the skull, called a craniotomy. The brain is gently retracted so that the artery with the aneurysm may be located. A small clip is placed across the neck of the aneurysm to block the normal blood flow fro...

This is where neurosurgeons place a small clip on the neck of the aneurysm to stop the bleeding. Two less-invasive procedures are coil embolization, in which doctors place tiny metal coils inside the aneurysm to block blood flow, or flow diversion, in which doctors place a mesh-like stent ...
