Abstract
Clinical approaches for aneurysms treatments, surgical clipping or endovascular coiling, have showed limited success due to parent artery thrombosis, coil migration and the surgical risks inherent in an open craniotomy procedure. In that sense, there is an increasing interest in neurosurgery to develop new alternatives for treatment of this kind of disease.
