    Reoperation for intracranial aneurysms can achieve successful obliteration in 89% of cases, with 84% of patients experiencing satisfactory outcomes despite initial surgical failures. This highlights the efficacy of repeat interventions for complex neurovascular conditions.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurosurgery
    • Vascular Neurology
    • Interventional Neuroradiology

    Background:

    • Complete obliteration of intracranial aneurysms during initial surgery remains a challenge despite advancements.
    • Recurrent or residual aneurysms necessitate further treatment to prevent rupture and associated morbidity.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the outcomes of reoperation for intracranial aneurysms that were not completely obliterated during the primary procedure.
    • To assess the safety and efficacy of repeat surgical or endovascular interventions in managing incompletely treated aneurysms.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 115 reoperation cases for intracranial aneurysms.
    • Analysis of aneurysm obliteration rates and patient outcomes following reintervention.
    • Assessment of factors contributing to outcomes, including pre-reoperation patient condition.

    Main Results:

    • Aneurysm obliteration was achieved in 89% of the 115 reoperations.
    • 84% of patients demonstrated a satisfactory clinical outcome post-reoperation.
    • Twelve patients experienced poor results, with three in critical condition prior to the repeat procedure.

    Conclusions:

    • Reoperation for intracranial aneurysms is an effective strategy for achieving high rates of obliteration and satisfactory patient outcomes.
    • Repeat interventions should be considered for incompletely treated aneurysms, balancing risks and potential benefits.
    • Patient condition prior to reoperation is a significant factor influencing outcomes.
