Kanamamış intrakranyal anevrizmalar

İntrakranyal anevrizmalar nöroşirürjinin ilgi alanındaki en önemli hastalıklardan biridir. Kanadıkları zaman ciddi morbidite ve mortaliteye neden olurlar. Nöroradyolojideki yeni teknolojiler ile intrakranyal anevrizmalar semptom vermeden tanınabilirler. Bu sayede kanamamış anevrizmaların doğal seyirlerinin nasıl olduğu ve farklı tedavi seçeneklerinin karşılaştırılması gündeme gelmiştir. Bu yazıda, kanamadan önce saptanmış intrakranyal anevrizmalarda doğal seyir ve tedavi seçenekleri gözden geçirilmektedir.

Unruptured intracranial aneurysms

Intracranial aneurysm is one of the most important diseases within the scope of neurosurgical field. These aneurysms cause serious morbidity and mortality when they bleed. Intracranial aneurysm can be recognized in the asymptomatic period, with the use of new technologies in neuroradiology. Thus, the natural progress of unruptured aneurysm and comparison of alternative treatment options have come on the agenda. This article reviews the natural progress of intracranial aneurysms detected before bleeding, and alternative treatment options.
