Key result
Microsurgical clipping in patients with poor-grade aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage was associated with a 48.6% six-month mortality rate and a 23.5% favorable functional outcome at 12 months.
Why the study?
Poor-grade aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage causes severe morbidity and high mortality, and early intervention is critical; the study aimed to evaluate functional outcome and overall survival following early microsurgical clipping.
Does early microsurgical clipping improve functional outcome and survival in patients with poor-grade aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage?
Observational (n=39)
No
Does early microsurgical clipping improve functional outcome and survival in patients with poor-grade aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage?
Microsurgical clipping provides promising functional outcomes and survival in carefully selected younger patients with poor-grade aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.
Early microsurgical clipping may support favorable 12-month outcomes in selected younger poor-grade aSAH patients; leaves open need for prospective trials versus endovascular therapy.

Lambrianou et al. (2023) conducted an observational in Poor-grade aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) (n=39). Microsurgical clipping was evaluated on Six-month mortality rate. Microsurgical clipping in patients with poor-grade aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage was associated with a 48.6% six-month mortality rate and a 23.5% favorable functional outcome at 12 months.
