The Usefulness of Extradural Anterior Clinoidectomy for Lower-Lying Posterior Communicating Artery Aneurysms : A Cadaveric Study
CONCLUSION: The proximal length obtained by performing an external anterior clinoidectomy is about 2 mm, sufficient for proximal control during PCoA aneurysm surgery, considering the thickness of the aneurysm clips. In a subarachnoid hemorrhage, performing an extradural anterior clinoidectomy could prevent a devastating situation during PCoA aneurysm clipping.PMID:38061762 | DOI:10.3340/jkns.2023.0184
