The definitive cure for an anterior cerebral aneurysm is an extremely delicate procedure. It involves the placing of a clip that looks like a miniature distorted clothespin on the neck of the aneurysm. The trick of it lies in choosing the right clip, choosing the right place to put it, getting just the right angle, and making sure that you seal off the neck of the aneurysm so that no blood can get into it, all the while avoiding all of the surrounding vessels.
