The risk associated with treating [[unruptured anterior communicating artery aneurysm]]s in patients [[age]] <65 years is low. Comparing [[risk]] with [[natural history]] studies, these patients can be expected to outperform natural history within 5 years. Recognizing the risk of smaller anterior communicating artery aneurysms, these findings suggest that treatment of even small lesions may be beneficial

Combined Outcomes of Endovascular or Surgical Treatment of Unruptured Anterior Communicating Artery Aneurysms: Is a More Aggressive Management Strategy Warranted?

[[Anterior communicating artery aneurysm treatment]] requires more collaboration between microsurgical [[clipping]] and [[endovascular therapy]]. Evaluation of patient and [[anterior communicating artery aneurysm]] characteristics by considering the [[advantage]]s and [[disadvantage]]s of both [[technique]]s could provide an optimal treatment modality. A [[hybrid vascular neurosurgeon]] is expected to be a proper solution for the management of these conditions
