“…2,11,12,[16][17][18][19] Outflow vessel size and orientation and neck anatomy can be variable and complex and thus lead to several standardized approaches to clipping based on morphological characteristics. 2,12,16,17,[29][30][31] Our data suggest that another feature that leads to significant complexity of safe treatment is the amount of aneurysm that extends proximal to the 2 dimensionally defined neck. In aneurysms with large neck overhang, any clipping strategy that places a clip parallel to the outflow vessels further widens the splayed bifurcation and risks kinking or stenosis of these vessels (see Figure 5).…”
