Comparing the frequency of symptomatic cerebral vasospasm and vasospasm-related ischemia in Fisher 3 grade ruptured anterior communicating artery aneurysms treated via microsurgical clipping or endovascular coiling

Ischemia due to cerebral vasospasm still remains an important cause of morbidity and mortality after aneurysmal SAH. Studies that compared the incidence of ischemia due to vasospasm between clip and coil therapies are still controversial. We compared vasospasm-induced ischemia rates between clip and coil therapies for ruptured anterior communicating artery aneurysms. We retrospectively analyzed cases of ruptured anterior communicating artery...
