In Japan, brain docking has enhanced the detection of unruptured intracranial aneurysms in healthy adults. At our institution, surgical clipping is the first-line treatment for unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIA). In this study, the differences in neurological and radiological outcomes, as well as cognitive and psychological results, between standard clipping and keyhole clipping for these aneurysms detected via brain docking were evaluated. The study included 131 aneurysms detected via "brain dock." Of these, 65 were treated with keyhole clipping surgery (keyhole clipping group), and 66 were treated with standard clipping surgery (standard clipping group). Evaluations at 3 months included the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale, modified Rankin Scale, Mini-Mental State Examination, Hasegawa's Dementia Scale-revised, Beck Depression Inventory, Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression, and radiological abnormalities. The mean operative time and postoperative hospitalization period were significantly shorter in the keyhole clipping group than in the standard clipping group (p < 0.001). Between the groups, no significant differences in postoperative neurological complications or radiological abnormalities were found. The keyhole clipping group demonstrated slightly but significantly better Beck Depression Inventory and Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression scores than the standard clipping group (Beck Depression Inventory, p = 0.046; Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression, p < 0.01). Both the Beck Depression Inventory and Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression scores at 3 months were significantly enhanced (p < 0.001) in the keyhole clipping group. These findings propose that keyhole clipping could be considered a new therapeutic option for small UIA detected via brain docking.

Objective: We report a case of mechanical thrombectomy (MT) via the distal transradial approach (dTRA) and technical tips.Case Presentation: An 89-year-old woman was transferred to our hospital due to back pain after a fall and sudden-onset left hemiparesis. We performed MT because three-dimensional computed tomography angiography (3D-CTA) revealed right middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion. The access route was Type 3 aortic arch. The abdominal aorta and common iliac artery were tortuous and partially dissected, and she had a lumbar vertebra fracture. We selected dTRA in consideration of safety, ease of access, and less postoperative postural restriction. The first pass resulted in complete recanalization using an aspiration catheter and stent retriever. Her symptoms rapidly improved and she was discharged with a modified Rankin Scale score of 1.Conclusion: dTRA in MT may be a treatment option.
