ClinConnect Summary

Minimally Invasive Neurosurgery is a inexorable tendency and it is already a reality in many centers of the world. It is a broad and relative concept and there is few consistent medical data to validate its benefits. In this manner, this is the first clinical trial in Brazil questioning the safety of the of minimally invasive surgery to treat incidental cerebral aneurysms of the anterior circulation. For countries like Brazil, the indirect demonstration of reduction in hospital costs through lower hospital stays is a breakthrough to provide better health for the entire population.
