Surgical case series of multiple aneurysms: A single-centre experience of 16 years

Introduction: Multiple aneurysms are present in 10% in patients with intracranial aneurysms. An analysis of the literature, focusing on the different treatments, and a description of our experience are performed. Presentation of case series: A surgical series with multiple intracranial aneurysms from 2000 to 2016, describing demographic, radiological and clinical features, is showed. In all patients a pre- and post-operative angiography was performed and surgical treatment, based on accurate indications, provided good outcomes in most cases. Discussion: Successful treatment of multiple intracranial aneurysms can be achieved by an interdisciplinary approach and the main factors influencing surgical treatment are discussed. Conclusions: Surgery always remains a definitive treatment and, considering intrinsic lesional features and patient’s characteristics, it offers good results for intracranial multiple aneurysms
