BackgroundSurgery has been in a huge development where the aim is to achieve same or better results with less complication in a less invasive way; these minimal approaches can be applied in a very safe way to aneurysmal neurosurgery.MethodImages are studied to optimize the patient positioning and the surgical roadmap. After the positioning, the skin incision, craniotomy, and dura incision are performed and intradural lesion is reached. A watertight closure is performed under the microscope.ConclusionThe keyhole approach requires some adaption from the side of the surgeon and can be performed only in cases envisioned to have no increased risk for the patient.
