What is Aneurysm clipping?

Aneurysm Clipping is a surgical procedure performed to treat a balloon-like bulge of an artery wall known as an aneurysm. As an aneurysm grows it becomes thinner and weaker. It can become so thin that it leaks or ruptures, releasing blood into the spaces around the brain - called a subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). A neurosurgeon places a tiny clip across the neck of the aneurysm to stop or prevent an aneurysm from bleeding.

Who is a candidate for Aneurism Clipping?

The choice of aneurysm treatment (observation, surgical clipping or bypass, or endovascular coiling) must be weighed against the risk of rupture and the overall health of the patient. Because clipping involves the use of anesthesia and surgically entering the skull, patients with other health conditions or who are in poor health may be treated with observation or coiling.

The surgical decision for Aneurysm Clipping

The treatment decision for observation, surgical clipping or bypass, or endovascular coiling largely depends on the aneurysm's size, location, and neck geometry. The less invasive nature of coiling is likely to be favored in patients who are older, are in poor health, have serious medical conditions, or have aneurysms in certain locations. In patients younger than 40 years of age, the difference in the safety between coiling versus clipping is small. Therefore, the better long-term protection from bleeding may give patients with clipped aneurysms an advantage in life expectancy.

What happens during Aneurysm Clipping surgery?

There are 3 steps to the procedure of Aneurysm Clipping Surgery. The operation generally takes 3-5 hours or longer if a complex craniotomy is planned.

Step 1: perform a craniotomy

After your scalp is prepped, the surgeon will make a skin incision to expose the skull. The skin and muscles are lifted off the bone and folded back. Next, small burr holes are made in the skull with a drill. The burr holes allow entrance of a special saw called a craniotome. Similar to using a jigsaw, the surgeon cuts an outline of a bone window. The cut bone flap is lifted and removed to expose the protective covering of the brain, called the dura mater. The bone flap is safely stored and replaced at the end of the procedure.

Step 2: expose the aneurysm

The dura is opened and folded back to expose the brain. Retractors are placed on the brain to gently open a corridor between the brain and skull. Working under an operating microscope, the surgeon carefully opens the corridor, locates the artery and follows it to the aneurysm.

Step 3: insert the clip

Once vascular control is achieved, the aneurysm neck is prepared for clipping. Often the aneurysm is held tight by connective tissue and must be freed and isolated from other structures. Additionally, small arteries called perforators must be noted so they are not included in the clip. The clip is held open with a clip applier and placed across the aneurysm neck. Once released, the jaws of the clip close pinching off the aneurysm from the parent artery. Multiple clips may be used. The surgeon inspects the clip to make sure it is not narrowing the parent artery nor has other arteries in its jaws. Once the clip is in place, the retractors holding the brain are removed and the dura is closed with sutures. The bone flap is replaced and is secured to the skull with titanium plates and screws. The muscles and skin are sutured back together. A turban-like or soft adhesive dressing will be placed over the incision.

What are the risks?

No surgery is without risk. General complications related to Aneurysm Clipping surgery include infection, allergic reactions to anesthesia, stroke, seizure, and swelling of the brain. Complications specifically related to aneurysm clipping include vasospasm, stroke, seizure, bleeding, and an imperfectly placed clip, which may not completely block off the aneurysm or blocks a normal

Recovery

Aneurysm patients may suffer short-term and/or long-term deficits as a result of a rupture or treatment. Some of these deficits may disappear over time with healing and therapy. The recovery process may take months or years to understand the deficits you incurred and regain function.
