Superselective Indocyanine Green Angiography for Selective Revascularization in the Management of Peripheral Cerebral Aneurysms

SUMMARY: This report describes the management of a fusiform peripheral middle cerebral artery aneurysm by endovascular parent artery occlusion under bypass protection. Localization of the recipient cortical artery was accomplished after craniotomy by superselective injection of diluted ICG dye via a microcatheter positioned proximal to the aneurysm. This report demonstrates that superselective ICG angiography can be a beneficial alternative technique to identify the best anastomosis site intraoperatively.
