Coiling vs. Clipping
To clip or not to clip . . . You might want to discuss having your aneurysm clipped. I could have had one of my aneurysms coiled, but the configuration was such that (1) I probably would have had to undergone another brain operation in the future to fix the coil job if (2) coiling would have worked at all.
I didn't want to go back for repeated surgeries, so I talked with my neurosurgeon and opted for a once-and-for-all clipping instead of coiling. Coiling may be easier in many ways, but it's not always the best way to go.
