Indocyanine green videoangiography in clipping of paraclinoid aneurysms.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the use of indocyanine green (ICG) videoangiography in surgical clipping of paraclinoid aneurysms.


METHODS
Intraoperative ICG videoangiography was used as a surgical adjunct in 60 patients with 65 paraclinoid aneurysms. The findings on ICG videoangiography were compared with postoperative imaging.


RESULTS
All 65 paraclinoid aneurysms were clearly identified by intraoperative ICG videoangiography and obliteration was documented in each case. Findings on ICG videoangiography matched with postoperative angiography.


CONCLUSIONS
ICG videoangiography is a useful adjunct to the surgical management of paraclinoid aneurysms.
