Surgical treatment of carotid cavernous aneurysms
Abstract
Carotid cavernous aneurysms are distinct entities. The anatomy of the cavernous sinus region has been well defined, and most spontaneous aneurysms of the cavernous sinus region carry a benign prognosis. Progressively symptomatic, traumatic, or infectious aneurysms require treatment. This can be accomplished by carotid occlusion, extra cranial to intracranial bypass, or direct surgery.
