Cerebral aneurysms are a serious condition that can lead to stroke or death. In the past, the only treatment option for cerebral aneurysms was open surgery, which is a complex and invasive procedure. However, in recent years, endovascular surgery has emerged as a less invasive and more effective treatment option for cerebral aneurysms.

Endovascular surgery is a minimally invasive procedure that is performed through a small incision in the groin. A catheter is then threaded through the arteries to the aneurysm site. Once the catheter is in place, a variety of techniques can be used to seal off the aneurysm and prevent it from rupturing.

Endovascular surgery is a safe and effective treatment option for cerebral aneurysms. The success rate of endovascular surgery is high, and the risk of complications is low. Endovascular surgery is also less invasive than open surgery, which means that patients recover more quickly and have a shorter hospital stay.

Endovascular Surgery of Cerebral Aneurysms is the definitive guide to this revolutionary treatment option. Written by leading experts in the field, this book provides a comprehensive overview of the latest techniques and outcomes, making it an essential resource for neurosurgeons, neuroradiologists, and interventional radiologists.
