Experiences in intracranial surgery for aneurysms.
This is a report of 54 cases of saccular aneurysms operated upon intracranially with a total operative mortality of 7.4%, poor results in four cases (7.4%) and excellent results in 46 cases (85.1%). For 53 supratentorial aneurysms, the operative mortality was 5.6%, with two operative deaths (4.8%) in the last 41 cases. Intermittent vascular occlusion with a newly developed special forceps and the use of moderate arterial hypotension were of value in dealing with these aneurysms.
