Purpose The orbital apex is the narrowest part of the orbit, housing the link between the
intracranial cavity and orbit. Knowledge of orbital apex anatomy is crucial to selecting a …

Paraclinoid aneurysms originate from the internal carotid artery between the distal dural ring
and the posterior communicating artery. Giant, multiple and bilateral aneurysms are more …

OBJECTIVE: Advances in surgical and endovascular techniques have improved treatment
for paraclinoid aneurysms. A combined surgical and endovascular team can formulate …

The site of origin, projection, and relationship of aneurysms arising from the ophthalmic
segment of the internal carotid artery (ICA) to adjacent structures are heterogeneous. Based …

OBJECTIVE: Aneurysms arising from the internal carotid artery in close relation to the clinoid
process have been called paraclinoid aneurysms. The surgical management of these …

OBJECTIVE: Extradural removal of the anterior clinoid process is technically challenging
because of the limited exposure. In our study of the extradural anterior clinoidectomy, we …

Objective Microsurgical clipping of intracranial aneurysms requires meticulous technique
and is usually performed through open approaches. Endoscopic endonasal clipping of …

Object The optimal therapy for ophthalmic segment aneurysms with anterior optic pathway
compression (AOPC) is undecided. Surgical results have been described, but the results of …

BACKGROUND: Aneurysms of the carotid-ophthalmic artery present unique challenges to
cerebrovascular neurosurgeons given their proximity to vital anatomic structures …

INTRODUCTION: A high-speed power-drilling technique of anterior clinoidectomy has been
advocated in all publications on paraclinoid region surgery. The entire shaft of the power …
