Fully endoscopic keyhole approach for intracranial aneurysm clipping: clinical outcomes and technical note.
Article in European journal of medical research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundSurgical clipping is often utilized to treat intracranial aneurysms. The application of the endoscopy and keyhole approach in neurosurgery is increasing gradually in intracranial aneurysm occlusion. The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of fully endoscopic keyhole approach in clipping of intracranial aneurysms.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed four cases of intracranial aneurysms, including three cases of middle cerebral artery bifurcation aneurysms (M1) and one case of anterior communicating aneurysms (ACoA). Among them, the anterior communicating aneurysm underwent fully endoscopic clipping via supraorbital keyhole approach and the middle cerebral aneurysms underwent fully endoscopic clipping via mini-pterional keyhole approach. The clipped aneurysms were evaluated by Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA).
resultsAll patients had satisfactory cerebral aneurysm clipping via the endoscopic keyhole approach. There was no cerebral hemorrhage, cerebral infarction, cerebral vasospasm. One case of intracranial infection was cured by active anti-infection. No recurrence of aneurysms after 6 months of follow-up.
conclusionWith the advantages of the endoscopy and keyhole approach, the excellent visual field of the endoscope can reduce the influence of intracranial aneurysmal neck residual and perforating vessel. However, endoscopic clipping of intracranial aneurysms in narrow corridors requires a learning curve.
