Rates of local procedural-related structural injury following clipping or coiling of anterior communicating artery aneurysms
Conclusions
Clipping of ACOM aneurysms is associated with significantly higher rates of structural injury than coiling, and this may be a reason for superior cognitive outcomes in patients treated with coiling in previously published studies.
