Abstract

Intracavernous aneurysms constitute a specific entity in today’s neurovascular surgery. Only recently the direct operative approach to vascular and tumor pathology has been introduced, and several authors have reported upon successful treatment (Parkinson 1965; Iwabuchi et al. 1978; Dolenc 1985; Hakuba et al. 1987; Perneczky et al. 1987). This paper presents our experience with the direct operative approach and clipping of seven nontraumatic intracavernous aneurysms.
