Abstract
Open microsurgical and endovascular techniques are the 2 primary strategies for treating intracranial aneurysms. Microsurgical clipping and adjuvant technical maneuvers are well-established techniques with a track record for high occlusion rates and durable repairs. Endovascular, endosaccular, and extrasaccular therapies are associated with lower peri-procedural morbidity but with generally higher rates of retreatment. We discuss key clinical and anatomic considerations in treatment decision-making and compare the risks and benefits of microsurgical vs endovascular treatment within each context.
