Anterior communicating artery (AComA) aneurysms are the most frequent intracranial aneurysms. They have a high risk of rupture, morbidity, and mortality following rupture. Surgical treatment is complex because of their deep location, proximity to the perforators, and their different projections and relations with the parent vessels. This retrospective study reports our experience in the surgical management of AComA aneurysms, describing how the microsurgical strategy is influenced by their projection and size, the orientation of the AComA complex, and the location and caliber of the parent vessels.

Abstract

 Anterior communicating artery (AComA) aneurysms are the most frequent intracranial aneurysms. They have a high risk of rupture, morbidity, and mortality following rupture. Surgical treatment is complex because of their deep location, proximity to the perforators, and their different projections and relations with the parent vessels. This retrospective study reports our experience in the surgical management of AComA aneurysms, describing how the microsurgical strategy is influenced by their projection and size, the orientation of the AComA complex, and the location and caliber of the parent vessels.
