No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of this proposal is to investigate the effects of uneventful microsurgical and endovascular treatment of unruptured saccular non-giant anterior communicating artery \[ACoA\] aneurysms on resting state functional connectivity levels of higher order cognitive networks and to correlate the connectivity levels of these networks with neuropsychological performance and functional outcome.

This study compares two treatment groups and one control group.

Conditions

  • Aneurysm

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Clipping

During the microsurgical operation a titan clip will be placed round the aneurysm neck to exclude the aneurysm from the bloodflow and prevent fatal subarachnoidal hemorrhage.

PROCEDURE

Coiling

Using a catheter technique the aneurysm dome will be filled up with coils to prevent subarachnoidal hemorrhage.
