Preservation of the arteries around an aneurysm: practical use of oxycellulose. Technical note.
The authors describe an intraoperative technique, in which oxycellulose is placed between an aneurysm and its surrounding arteries, allowing a space to be secured for inserting the clip blades without occlusion of the arteries. This method is useful in preserving the blood vessels, especially perforating arteries, around the aneurysm.
