Anterior Communicating Artery Aneurysm Clipping

To contrast the standard clipping procedure for an anterior communicating artery aneurysm with a problematic case in which the aneurysm neck is too large for a standard clip.

Text in this illustration: Acomm aneurysms are generally clipped using fenestrated clips. The perforators that arise from Acomm must be avoided. Some aneurysm necks will be too large for a standard clip. Multiple clips or clips with longer blades can be used to counter this.
