Principles of revascularization in treatment of giant intracranial aneurysms

: During recent decades extra-intracranial and intra-intracranial bypasses have deserved high interest among neurosurgeon, especially in management of giant cerebral aneurysms. Development of microsurgery and neuroanesthesiological techniques, advances in neuroradiology and neurophysiology prerequisite improvement of revascularization surgery. Evolution of competitive endovascular methods pushes the surgeons to improve microneurosurgical technique of revascularization and elaboration of new approaches to management of intracranial aneurysms. In this review we discuss principles of surgery of cerebrovascular bypasses in management of giant aneurysms applied in our clinic.
