Giant aneurysms: surgical treatment.

G D Silverberg

    Neurological Research
    |March 1, 1984
    PubMed
    Summary

    Surgical management of giant cerebral aneurysms utilized proximal ligation, arterial bypass, or direct attack with hypothermia and circulatory arrest. This approach achieved successful exclusion of aneurysms without parent artery sacrifice, resulting in low morbidity and no mortality.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurosurgery
    • Vascular Surgery
    • Neurology

    Background:

    • Giant aneurysms of the cerebral circulation pose significant surgical challenges.
    • Effective management strategies are crucial to minimize patient morbidity and mortality.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the surgical management of giant aneurysms.
    • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of different surgical techniques for cerebral aneurysms.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of surgical experience with giant cerebral aneurysms.
    • Treatment involved proximal ligation and arterial bypass for skull base aneurysms.
    • Direct attack with hypothermia and circulatory arrest for aneurysms within the subarachnoid space.

    Main Results:

    • Successful exclusion of giant aneurysms from circulation was achieved.
    • Parent arteries were preserved in all cases.
    • No mortality was recorded, and morbidity was acceptably low.

    Conclusions:

    • Surgical management of giant cerebral aneurysms can be performed with excellent outcomes.
    • Techniques including hypothermia and circulatory arrest offer enhanced control for complex dissections.
    • The described methods provide a safe and effective approach to treating these challenging lesions.
