Abstract: Aneurysms represent local pathological enlargement of the brain blood vessels that occur in 5% of the population. Intracranial aneurysms in 30 to 37% of the population are localized on the anterior communicating artery. Rupture of aneurysms of the anterior communicating artery lead to subarachnoid hemorrhage characterized by a high rate of morbidity and mortality. There are a number of open issues that are debated in the scientific community for aneurysms the anterior communicating artery. The purpose of this paper was to analyze clinical features, diagnostic and therapeutic modalities of aneurysms of the anterior communicating artery. All patients in this study were treated operatively and aneurysm was excluded from circulation by placing permanent clip to the neck of the aneurysm. Morphological analysis and topographical characteristics of the aneurysms of the anterior communicating artery is very important to decide the treatment of the aneurysm. Use of microneurosurgical clipping is an effective method for the treatment of aneurysms of the anterior communicating artery.
