Giant Intracranial Aneurysms: A Case-Based Atlas of Imaging and Treatment

This atlas provides an up-to-date overview of the imaging and treatment options available for giant intracranial aneurysms since the 1990s, with a focus on the modern endovascular era. It includes clinical case studies and discusses the merits of different imaging modalities, endovascular treatment approaches, and reconstructive and deconstructive strategies. It is a valuable reference and practical aid for neuroradiologists, neurosurgeons, neurologists, fellowship trainees, postgraduate, and graduate students.

This comprehensive atlas delves into the realm of imaging and treatment options for giant intracranial aneurysms since the dawn of the modern endovascular era, which began in the 1990s. During this transformative period, significant strides were made in the therapy of small intracranial aneurysms, although the treatment of giant aneurysms remained an insurmountable challenge. However, at the turn of the century, a gradual improvement in this bleak scenario emerged, fueled by a better understanding of the pathophysiology of giant intracranial aneurysms. This shift in the treatment landscape of giant intracranial aneurysms has been vividly illustrated through informative clinical case studies. The clinical presentation of giant aneurysms in adults and children is meticulously described, along with the merits of various imaging modalities, which are explained and illustrated in detail. Extensive consideration has been given to modern fusion imaging, which has significantly enhanced our understanding of the disease's nature. Endovascular treatment approaches, including illustrative open surgical approaches, are thoroughly documented, along with reconstructive and deconstructive strategies. Special attention is paid to factors that influence management strategies, treatment choice, and potential complications. This atlas serves as a valuable reference and practical aid for neuroradiologists, neurosurgeons, neurologists, fellowship trainees, postgraduate and graduate students.
