Microsurgical clipping of Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms (UIA) by a single surgeon's experience: why we should definitely preserve the neurosurgical skills in our health areas

The long standing comparison between the endovascular and microsurgical treatment is still ongoing. While not any center avails of a neuroendovascular service, and not every aneurysm is suitable for endovascular treatment, the neurovascular technique is slowly disappearing from our territories, whereas in the current Literature, the role of the neurosurgical treatment is being re-appreciated. The objective of this paper is to discuss a single surgeon's clinical and radiological results with the microsurgical management of UIA.
