摘要

Background

Microsurgery alone often proves to be challenging in treating paraclinoid internal carotid artery (ICA) aneurysms, which are known for their complex anatomy.

Method

A 53-year-old female with a large right ICA-superior hypophyseal artery (SHA) aneurysm underwent clipping repair. Mixed reality technology was utilized in the preoperative planning and anatomical study. During the surgery, the anterior clinoid process was removed intradurally to improve access to the aneurysm neck. The aneurysm was then secured with a long curved clip. The patient’s recovery was successful without any complications.

Conclusion

This report aims to shed light on the intricacies involved in clipping ICA-SHA aneurysms.
