Abstract
Background
The transorbital approach through the roof of the orbit can be utilized safely for the clip obliteration of ACOM aneurysms.
Method
We demonstrate the technique and describe the limited indications for its application. The operation proceeds by strictly following the anatomic dissection of the optic nerve, A1 segment of the ACA and then dissection and clipping of the aneurysm.
Conclusion
For the properly chosen patient and aneurysm, the transorbital approach has an excellent cosmetic outcome and can safely eliminate the aneurysm with great patient satisfaction.
期刊介绍:
The journal "Acta Neurochirurgica" publishes only original papers useful both to research and clinical work. Papers should deal with clinical neurosurgery - diagnosis and diagnostic techniques, operative surgery and results, postoperative treatment - or with research work in neuroscience if the underlying questions or the results are of neurosurgical interest. Reports on congresses are given in brief accounts. As official organ of the European Association of Neurosurgical Societies the journal publishes all announcements of the E.A.N.S. and reports on the activities of its member societies. Only contributions written in English will be accepted.
