Application of Optic Fiber Scope for Intracranial Aneurysm Surgery

Year: 1992

Type: article

Abstract: The major cause of complications of intracranial aneurysm surgery can be attributed to difficulties in visualizing the perforators originating from the contralateral side of aneurysm and/or parent arteries. To facilitate microsurgical treatment of intracranial aneurysm the authors applied an optic fiber scope with 45° or 90° angled fiber tip. This method was applied in three patients and demonstrated applicability for visualizing the contralateral perforators.
