Combined standard bypass and parent artery occlusion for management of giant and complex internal carotid artery aneurysms

Conclusions The combined approach of STA-MCA bypass surgery followed by parent artery occlusion achieves high aneurysm occlusion and low morbidity rates in the management of giant and complex ICA aneurysms. This combined indirect approach represents a viable alternative to flow diversion in patients with cranial nerve compression syndromes or matricidal aneurysms, and may serve as a backup strategy in cases of peri-interventional complications or lack of suitable endovascular access.
