| Popis: | Summary Background. The natural history of unruptured cerebral aneurysms is not clearly defined. Method. Fifteen patients who were diagnosed with unruptured intracranial aneurysms and were surgically treated by clipping at our hospital during the years 2004–2005 were studied retrospectively. Findings. There was no mortality. Early morbidity in this study was 6.6%. One patient developed symptomatic vasospasm after the surgery. Conclusions. In this study, the microsurgical treatment of intracranial unruptured aneurysms was found to be a safe intervention and prevented the possibility of the patients developing subarachnoid haemorrhage, which has high mortality and morbidity. |
