Endoport-Assisted Microsurgical Treatment of a Ruptured Periventricular Aneurysm

Figure 2

(a) Intraoperative view through the outer sheath of the BrainPath endoport system shows exposure of the proximal vessel (dashed arrow) and the partially thrombosed, fusiform periventricular aneurysm (solid arrow) within the atrium of the right lateral ventricle. (b) A temporary clip was placed on the inflow vessel to achieve proximal control prior to ligation of the aneurysm with electrocautery. Postoperative CTA, (c) axial, (d) sagittal, and (e) coronal views, shows interval decrease in the quantity of intraventricular hemorrhage and no evidence of residual aneurysm.
