Overview
Recurrence of intracranial aneurysms (IA) after surgical treatment (aneurysm clipping) is relatively rare in clinical practice. The treatment of such an aneurysm requires an individualized approach based on precise medical imaging and experience of the team. Surgical treatment of recurrent aneurysms is technically more demanding compared to primary surgery especially due to postoperative changes. The goal of this study is to review current knowledge and management of recurrent IA after clipping and present our experience with such cases.
