Atasam Hospital provides services with a specialized team in aneurysm surgery. An aneurysm is a ballooning or dilation caused by the weakening of the vessel wall. This condition poses serious health risks, particularly when it occurs in vital vessels such as the brain and aorta. We aim to achieve successful outcomes in aneurysm treatment using the most advanced technologies and techniques in modern medicine.

Types of Aneurysms and Surgical Treatment Methods

Brain Aneurysm:
A brain aneurysm is formed due to the weakening of a blood vessel wall in the brain, potentially leading to a brain hemorrhage.

Surgical Treatment Methods:

Microvascular Clipping:
A small metal clip is placed at the neck of the brain aneurysm. This clip stops blood flow to the aneurysm, preventing it from rupturing.

Endovascular Coiling:
A platinum coil is inserted into the aneurysm through angiography. The coil blocks blood flow into the aneurysm, facilitating its closure.

Aortic Aneurysm:
An aortic aneurysm occurs due to the weakening of the body’s main artery and can develop in the thoracic (chest) or abdominal regions.

Surgical Treatment Methods:

Open Surgical Repair:
The aneurysmal section is surgically removed and replaced with a graft (artificial vessel).

Endovascular Aneurysm Repair (EVAR/TEVAR):
A stent-graft is placed at the aneurysm site using a catheter. This minimally invasive technique typically offers a shorter recovery period compared to open surgery.

Surgical Process and Postoperative Care

Diagnosis and Evaluation:

Clinical Examination:
The patient’s complaints and medical history are thoroughly evaluated.

Imaging Techniques:
Advanced imaging methods such as MRI, CT, and angiography are used to determine the location, size, and condition of the aneurysm.

Surgical Intervention:

Patient-Specific Planning:
Each patient’s condition is evaluated individually, and the most appropriate surgical method is selected.

Surgical Procedure:
The operation is performed by expert surgeons using modern surgical techniques.

Postoperative Care:

Intensive Care:
Patients are monitored in the intensive care unit during the initial postoperative period.

Rehabilitation:
Rehabilitation programs are implemented to accelerate patients’ recovery and facilitate their return to normal life.

Regular Follow-Up:
Patients are monitored through regular check-ups after surgery, and additional treatments are planned if necessary.

Advantages and Risks

Advantages:

Reduction of Life-Threatening Risks:
Aneurysm treatment reduces the risk of aneurysm rupture, eliminating life-threatening danger.

Modern Techniques:
Minimally invasive surgical methods offer shorter recovery times and lower complication risks.

Quality of Life:
Successful treatment significantly improves patients’ quality of life.

Risks:

Infection:
There is a risk of infection with surgical interventions.

Bleeding:
There is a risk of bleeding during or after surgery.

Complications:
As with any surgical procedure, there may be complications related to anesthesia and surgery.
