| Sumario: | Surgery of cerebral aneurysms has evolved over the years. Advances regard enhanced intraoperative visualization and monitoring of both function and perfusion. Technological assistance used in oncological or skull base surgery, such as intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM) or endoscopy, now adopt to vascular surgery. Intraoperative indocyanine green video angiography (ICG-VA) and techniques for its interpretation (squeezing maneuver; entrapment sign), endoscopes, and exoscopes increase visualization. Flow evaluation by microflow probe permits perfusion monitoring; IONM allows functional monitoring. Bypasses replace flow in complex aneurysm cases. Pre-, intra-, and postoperative imaging and flow measurement techniques help in donor selection and follow-up. Despite some progression in the aneurysm clips, the principle has not changed. Innovation and even change of principle in aneurysm exclusion might be desirable. Basic research in aneurysm wall and flow dynamics might in the future change the paradigms of cerebral aneurysm treatment. |
