title: [Microsurgical treatment of multiple intracranial aneurysms].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To summarize the experience in microsurgical treatment of multiple intracranial aneurysms.
  
  
  METHODS
  Eight patients with 17 aneurysms were analysed retrospectively.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Seven patients were followed up from 0.5 month to 10 years. According to Sundt's standard, the results in 5 patients were excellent and 2 good. One patients with bilateral PCom aneurysm died 1 week after operation.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Multiple intracranial aneurysms should be removed as soon as possible, especially bilateral ones. The best way is first to clip the bled aneurysm and then the contralateral one by using coronal incision and bilateral pterional approach. This approach has the advantage of minimal invasion, good exposure, and less time-consuming.
