Introduction: The increase in life expectancy raises the question of the treatment of unruptured intracranial aneurysms in extremely old patients (>80 years). We present results in terms of occlusion and complications in both symptomatic and asymptomatic aneurysm.
Methods: All patients aged >80 years admitted to the Foundation Adolphe de Rothschild between January 1, 2005 and March, 2023 were included.
Background: Cerebellar intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is associated with poor functional prognosis and high mortality. Surgical evacuation has been proposed to improve outcome. The purpose of this review was to determine the benefit of surgical evacuation of cerebellar ICH and to establish guidelines for when it should be performed.

Objective: To compare the results between microsurgery and EVT in a modern French cohort.
Article Synopsis
- Ruptured middle cerebral artery aneurysms (MCAa) can cause serious brain bleeding (intracerebral hematoma), and the study aimed to compare the outcomes of two treatments: microsurgery (clipping) and endovascular therapy (EVT).
- The research involved 162 adult patients who needed evacuation of intracerebral hematoma across nine hospitals in France, analyzing factors linked to recovery using a standard scale (modified Rankin scale) after six months.
- Results showed that clipping was associated with better functional outcomes (30% poor outcome rate) compared to EVT (76% poor outcome rate), potentially due to longer delays in treatment for the EVT group.
