Feasibility and safety of partial resection of the anterior insular cortex for microsurgical treatment of middle cerebral artery aneurysms located in the limen recess: patient series
Abstract:BACKGROUND
When performing clip ligation of superior projecting aneurysms of the proximal (M1) segment of the middle cerebral artery (MCA), meticulous sylvian fissure dissection alone may be inadequate for safe clip application, especially in cases in which the aneurysm is buried in the limen recess, since the limen insulae may be positioned lateral to the aneurysm. In the present patient series, the authors present their surgical technique for clip ligation of aneurysms located in the limen recess, with parti… Show more
