[The use of the contralateral pterional approach in the surgery of cerebral aneurysms].
The contralateral pterional approach was used in the surgical treatment of 17 patients with cerebral aneurysms. Six of them had solitary aneurysms in the ophthalmological segment and fork of the carotid artery, the aneurysms were clipped by the contralateral approach. Eleven patients were found to have multiple aneurysms in different carotid beds and the main artery, the aneurysms were clipped from blood flow by applying the pterional approach, including the contralateral one. The contralateral pterional approach may be the method of choice in surgery for cerebral aneurysms.
