Abstract
- The authors describe the case of a 57-year-old female who developed subrachnoid hemorrhage secondary to rupture of posteriorly projecting, high placed aneurysm of the proximal posterior cerebral artry. This aneurysm was treated easily and successfully with the zygomatic temporopolar approach which was modification of the temporopolar approach proposed by Sano by detaching the zygomatic arch to get a wide and flexible operating field.
