Multimodal Intraoperative Neuromonitoring in Aneurysm Surgery

Following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, the primary goal of treatment is to exclude the vascular malformation from the intracranial circulation, while preserving the parent artery. In unruptured aneurysms, the decision whether to treat or observe the malformation is made on a case-by-case basis. In this regard, the ISUIA (International Study of Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms) investigators suggested that aneurysm size and location were independent predictors for aneurysm rupture.1 ISUIA examined 1692 patients with cerebral aneurysms with a mean follow-up time of 4.1 years. Rupture rates differed depending on size and location, ranging from 0% in aneurysms <7 mm located in the in…
