Abstract
Muscle wrapping of cerebral saccular aneurysms has been used since 1933. It seems that a gap always occurs between the muscle and the aneurysm wall and therefore the method of muscle wrapping has not found widespread use. In a rat model we have used rat-Tisseel to produce an immediate effective contact between pieces of muscle and the rat femoral artery wall, confirmed by histological examinations up to 1 month postoperatively. The use of Tisseel in human cases of muscle wrapping of giant aneurysms or broad-based, nonclippable aneurysms is introduced.
