Trans-lateral ventricular approach for surgical treatment of high-located P2-P3 junction posterior cerebral artery aneurysms: from anatomical research to clinical application.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Posterior cerebral artery (PCA) aneurysms, though rare, pose treatment challenges. Endovascular therapy is the preferred option, but microsurgery becomes necessary in certain cases. Various microsurgical approaches have been suggested for PCA aneurysms, particularly those at the P2-P3 junction. This study highlights the trans-lateral ventricular approach (TVA) for addressing these complex aneurysms. This study aims to assess the feasibility and safety of the trans-lateral ventricular approach (TVA) for treating high-located complex PCA aneurysms at the P2-P3 junction. The study evaluates both clinical outcomes and anatomical considerations.

Methods

Two cases of PCA aneurysms at the P2-P3 junction were treated using TVA in 2019. Navigation-guided entry via the inte
