Stereotaxic clipping of arterial and arteriovenous aneurysms of the brain.
A new method of stereotaxic clipping of arterial and AV aneurysms has been developed. The surgical technique and the special clipping device are briefly described. Successful results have been obtained in 30 clipping operations performed on 27 patients with arterial or AV aneurysms at different locations with follow-up ranging from 6 months to 6 years. There was one fatal outcome not directly related to the clipping operation.
