ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Clipping continues to be one of the treatment strategies for ophthalmic artery aneurysms not amenable for stenting or coiling, or when long-term treatment durability is a concern. However, crescent development of endovascular techniques demands minimal invasiveness in the transcranial approaches while ensuring satisfactory results.METHODS:
We describe an extradural micropterional keyhole approach (eMKA) to the paraclinoid region and highlight the key anatomical elements of this surgical approach.CONCLUSION:
The eMKA is a minimally invasive approach that provides access to the paraclinoid region using an extradural corridor. Therefore, it is suitable for clipping of ophthalmic artery aneurysms and other paraclinoid aneurysms.Palavras-chave
