Abstract

This study was undertaken to evaluate the long-term angiographic outcome of surgically treated aneurysms. In addition, the incidence of recurrent aneurysms, the fate of residual aneurysms and the de novo formation of aneurysms were evaluated. Moreover, morphological conditions such as dilatation, stenosis or irregularity in temporarily clipped vascular segments were analyzed.
