Interhemispheric approach with callosal resection for distal anterior cerebral artery aneurysms. Technical note.

Distal anterior cerebral artery aneurysms are commonly found near the genu of the corpus callosum. While these aneurysms may be surgically obliterated through a variety of approaches, exposure via the interhemispheric fissure is used by many surgeons. Early identification of the afferent artery may be difficult with this approach, however, particularly if the aneurysm lies just beneath the genu of the corpus callosum. The authors have modified the interhemispheric approach to distal anterior cerebral artery aneurysms by electively exposing the feeding artery through a small anterior callosotomy. While this maneuver is not necessary for all distal anterior cerebral artery aneurysms, it can greatly enhance exposure in the region just below the genu of the corpus callosum. Experience with this technique in five patients is reported. In all cases, the limited anterior callosotomy enhanced surgical exposure. No morbidity could be attributed to the callosotomy in any patient. It is concluded that, when the interhemispheric approach is used, anterior callosotomy improves exposure of the region just below the genu of the corpus callosum and may be a useful maneuver when treating distal anterior cerebral artery aneurysms.
