Abstract
We thank Dr Mugikura and colleagues for their comments regarding our recent article “Patient Outcomes and Cerebral Infarction after Ruptured Anterior Communicating Artery Aneurysm Treatment.”[1][1] Patients who undergo ruptured anterior communicating (AcomA) aneurysm treatment by microsurgical
Highlights
In response to the first question raised by our colleagues, we did not detect any subcallosal artery infarctions in our study population, as they note in their letter
In response to the second point raised by our colleagues, reduced functional independence may be due to memory loss and amnesia, which is the focus of the prior study of Mugikura et al.[3]
As they note in their letter and we note in our limitations, we do not routinely perform neuropsychological testing after AcomA aneurysm rupture and treatment
Summary
In response to the first question raised by our colleagues, we did not detect any subcallosal artery infarctions in our study population, as they note in their letter.
