Surgical treatment of intracranial aneurysms in private practice yielded positive outcomes. Despite challenges in a community setting, results were comparable to university hospitals, with most patients recovering well.

Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Vascular Surgery
  • Neurology

Background:

  • Intracranial aneurysms pose significant surgical challenges.
  • Community-based surgical practices may differ from academic settings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report surgical outcomes of intracranial aneurysms treated in a private practice setting.
  • To compare community-based results with those from university hospitals.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 34 intracranial aneurysm surgeries over 15 years.
  • Analysis of patient outcomes, including mortality and neurological complications.

Main Results:

  • One death occurred due to postoperative arterial spasm.
  • Three patients experienced neurological injury; others remained stable or improved.

  • Successful outcomes were achieved in the majority of cases.

    • Conclusions:

    • Intracranial aneurysm surgery in a private practice is feasible and can achieve results similar to university settings.
    • Community surgical experiences, even with fewer cases, can yield comparable outcomes.
    • This study supports the efficacy of private practice neurosurgery for intracranial aneurysms.
