What the procedure involves.
Treatment of cerebral aneurysms through microsurgical clipping or endovascular coiling/flow diversion. China's neurovascular surgery centers handle extremely high case volumes, giving surgeons extensive experience with both ruptured and unruptured aneurysms. Advanced endovascular techniques including flow diverters and intrasaccular devices are available at leading institutions.
Step by step.
Neurovascular Imaging
CT angiography, MR angiography, and/or digital subtraction angiography (DSA) to characterize aneurysm size, morphology, neck width, and relationship to parent vessels.
Treatment Strategy Decision
Multidisciplinary neurovascular team determines optimal approach — microsurgical clipping vs. endovascular coiling vs. flow diverter — based on aneurysm characteristics and patient factors.
Surgical or Endovascular Procedure
Clipping: craniotomy with microsurgical clip placement across aneurysm neck. Coiling: catheter-based delivery of platinum coils into the aneurysm sac to prevent rupture.
Post-procedure Monitoring
ICU monitoring for vasospasm (if ruptured), follow-up angiography to confirm complete treatment, and neurological assessment before discharge.
- Prevents potentially fatal subarachnoid hemorrhage
- Endovascular options offer minimally invasive approach
- High-volume centers with extensive neurovascular expertise
- 60-80% cost savings including device costs
- Procedural rupture risk (1-2%)
- Stroke or neurological deficit from vessel occlusion
- Aneurysm recurrence requiring retreatment (coiling > clipping)
- Vasospasm risk if treating ruptured aneurysm
